NAME
       mod_perl_cvs - Access to the mod_perl CVS development tree

DESCRIPTION
       The mod_perl development tree lives on cvs.apache.org.  This tree
       contains the latest mod_perl bug fixes and developments that have not
       made it to CPAN yet.  Welcome to the bleeding edge.

SYNOPSIS
       Just as cvs access to the Apache development tree, the mod_perl code
       pulled from cvs is not guaranteed to do anything, especially not
       compile or work.  But, that's exactly why we are using cvs, so everyone
       has access the latest version and can help see to it that mod_perl does
       compile and work on all platforms, with the various versions and
       configurations of Perl and Apache.  Patches are always welcome, simply
       testing the latest snapshots is just as, if not more helpful.

       It's recommended to subscribe to the modperl-cvs@perl.apache.org list,
       which is the place cvs commit logs and diffs are mailed to; at least if
       you're going to work on the code.

       Here are the several ways to access the cvs tree.

       cvsup
           Cvsup has come out of the FreeBSD group. It's a client/server beast
           that offers an efficient way to sync collections of files over the
           net, and it is very CVS aware, allowing syncronisation of
           repositories or checked out files using the cvs deltas to bring the
           client side files up to date with minimal data transfer.

           For a FreeBSD cvsup client see:

           http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=cvsup&stype=all

           Others (SunOS, alpha.osf, linux, Solaris2.4, HPAA 10.2, irix)
           ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/CVSup/

           Here's a config file for the client (cvsup) to sync modperl
           sources.

            *default tag=.
            # comment out the above if you want the raw cvs files

            *default host=cvs.apache.org
            *default prefix=/path/on/this/machine/to/install/
            # a subdir for modperl will appear here ^^^

            *default base=/path/on/this/machine/where/cvsup/will/keep/status/info
            # you'll never need to look in the 'base' dir.

            *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress

            modperl
            #apache-src
            #apache-docs
            #uncomment these two for the latest apache src and/or docs if you want them

       anoncvs
           To checkout a fresh copy from anoncvs use

            cvs -d ":pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic" login

           with the password "anoncvs".

            cvs -d ":pserver:anoncvs@cvs.apache.org:/home/cvspublic" co modperl

           For a basic introduction to anoncvs see
           http://dev.apache.org/anoncvs.txt

       from-cvs
           A snapshot is rolled of the modperl tree every 6 hours and placed
           here:

           http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/modperl/

           A snapshot of the Apache development tree is also rolled every 6
           hours and placed here:

           http://cvs.apache.org/snapshots/
