Re: CVS instructions

"Once you have the latest sources, "cvs update" will get any

A cvs update from src/ also downloads many other modules (I
guess all from
http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/?cvsroot=src),
not just the changes from a winsup checkout:

U djunpack.bat
U bfd/COPYING
U bfd/ChangeLog
...

Am I missing something obvious from the instructions ?

No.


You can either check out a new tree everytime you want to update. Or, what I do is execute "cvs -q update -l && cvs -q update *" from the src directory. This will get new file elements in the src directory and then update all existing subdirectories.
