[clc-devel] Branched 2.0 ports, please start to tag ports for 2.1
Hi everybody, I've created a branch from the CONTRIB-2_0 ports in order to allow independent port updates for CRUX 2.0 if this is needed. In order to work on it, do a export CVS_RSH=ssh cvs -d <user>@clc.morpheus.net:/home/crux/cvs co -r CRUX-2_0 clc Changes for CRUX 2.0 should only be commited to this branch. In addition, please start tagging the ports for 2.1 (tag: CONTRIB-2_1) using the 2.1rc1 ISO, if you have to chance to do so. It installs and runs fine in qemu [1], a processor emulator which can emulate an x86 machine (amongst others), allowing you to test your ports without freeing up a Vpartition, or updating your production server :-). I recommend to use Jukka's port if you are interested in qemu. Finally, you don't have to do a fresh checkout to tag the ports CONTRIB-2_1; you can continue with your current working copy. Feel free to ask if you have questions or anything's unclear. Kind regards, Johannes P.S. I created the branch from the CONTRIB-2_0 tag, which means that if you commited changes without moving the tag, they're not taken into account.

Hi, Is it necessary to start untagging CONTRIB-2_0 ports, or will the time for this be the day of the CRUX-2.1 release, or will CONTRIB-2_0 be stripped automatically? Thanks, Nick

I'd recommend to just leave the CONTRIB-2_0 tag on the last version tested on CRUX 2.0. This way, users of CRUX 2.0 will at least get a working version, even if it's outdated. So you can basically stop caring about those 2.0 tags once you've settled with 2.1.
