- The Unix Listserv Program (TULP) is a project involving multiple
- development sites. To aid working with the same sources at many
- sites all at once we have used the Revision Control System (RCS)
- from the GNU Project.
-
- If you plan to make any changes, enhancements or fixes to the
- program, we suggest using RCS yourself. Get the latest sources
- for RCS from any GNU redistribution site - we are using v5.6.
- Once you have all the files of TULP in one directory, create a
- directory called RCS, and check everything into RCS with the -k
- option. This will preserve the RCS keyword values already in
- the distributed files. Here is the procedure:
-
- % mkdir tulp
- % chdir tulp
- % zcat ../tulp-200.tar.Z | tar -xvf -
- % mkdir RCS
- % ci -k *
-
- Once you have made changes and wish to contribute to the TULP
- project, get the changes you have made using rcsdiff against the
- original released version. You might want to start your own
- branch if you like to save checkpoint versions of your own work.
-
- I do know there is a package called CVS that might handle this
- kind of work better. However, I don't currently have a working
- version of CVS installed, and I am not really aware of all the
- procedures needed for using CVS. If someone would like to shed
- some light about this, please do so!
-
- All code changes are preferred in a context diff format. Please
- send diffs through e-mail to the authors.
