Why is CVS always outdated?

Post by ugumba » 2003-03-06 17:38

Hi!
I'm wondering why the CVS repository is lagging behind so much? Is it not supported or used by the main developers of DC++?

I'm working on some experimental features in 0.211, and would prefer to avoid having to merge my changes manually.

Thanks,
Ugumba

It is quite annoying, but...

You don't need sf CVS server to be able to merge your changes. For example I run my own CVS server in which I have two branches for dcpp project. Into the first I always import official DCPP release and into the second I'm doing all my changes. On checkout they are pretty merged together. Refer to CVS documentation on how to keep track of external sources.
