anoncvs incompatible with http://xml.apache.org/from-cvs/xml-cocoon/

[Robin Green <gr...@hotmail.com>]

Firstly I must admit I am new to CVS.

I first downloaded the latest Cocoon from 
http://xml.apache.org/from-cvs/xml-cocoon/ and then just now tried to update 
it with

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@xml.apache.org:/home/cvspublic update -d

But all the CVS/Repository files point to /home/cvs/xml-cocoon which is not 
accessible to me under anoncvs. So I have to inefficiently download the 
whole thing instead of using the update command (I assume update is more 
efficient, right?).

Is it possible to configure the site to solve this problem? Or is there a 
command line option that I can use to solve it?

Weird, cvs should fix that for you when you set CVSROOT.

	perl -pi -e 's@/home@:pserver:anoncvs@xml.apache.org:/home@g' `find .
-name CVS -type d`

Might do the trick, or is it perhaps:

	perl -pi -e 's@/home@xml.apache.org:/home@g' `find . -name CVS -type d`

Duh,
