Req #3339 [Opn]: package download pages should mention the cvs server string

Edit report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=3339&edit=1 ID: 3339 Updated by: smith@pooteeweet.org Reported By: neuhauser at chello dot cz Status: Open Id: 3339 Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Web Site PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: Ah ok. Well most packages are in cvs.php.net and follow a clear naming standard in CVS. So its effectively a non issue. It is however an issue for packages living outside of PEAR CVS. Few if them even provide a web cvs/svn links and I do agree that it would be important to provide the necessary information there (including anonymous username/password). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-26 09:30:48] neuhauser at chello dot cz I don't want to use the web interface, I want to *check out* the source. Like: cvs -qd:pserver:whoever@wherever:/path co For that, I need to know the :pserver:whoever@wherever:/path part. How is Chora supposed to help me? I don't see what's bogus about this request. Again, I don't need a web page URL, I need the right value for the cvs -d switch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-08-13 15:54:59] smith at pooteeweet dot org there is a "Browse the source tree" button on the relevant package homepage that developers can configure for their package, please contact the relevant maintainer if there is no link. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-01-31 16:48:55] neuhauser at chello dot cz Description: ------------ i think the subject says it all. i just wanted to submit a patch to one of the packages, but now i need to first dig out the right CVSROOT value. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=3339&edit=1
