This is is CVS 1.10.7 compiled with PGCC/emx 1.1.3 for OS/2. If you are
unsure of what CVS is then please visit http://www.cyclic.com. Essentially it
is an excellent OpenSource version control program.
There is one correction to the source, which I noticed was causing
strange behavior with 4OS2. For some reason the CVS authors were shelling
out to the OS/2 command line and running ATTRIB to change the read-only
attrib on or off. 4OS2 prints out a line every time the ATTRIB comand is
run, so it really cluttered up the screen (even with the -q flag).
I changed it to be like the *nix sources and use the emx library function
chmod(), which not only eliminated the strangeness, but significantly sped up
the program.
The changes are included in the diff/patch file patches.os2. I have
submitted these changes to the CVS maintainers.
The original sources are available from ftp://ftp.cyclic.com/pub/cvs-1.10.7
I also thank Andreas Huber <ahuber@ping.at> for his script to install the
documentation files as well as the Introduction to CVS file he compiled.
