How do i access CVS ?
by Pavel Kraynyukhov · in Torque Game Engine · 03/24/2005 (12:46 pm) · 13 replies
I downloaded TSE and T2D today morning (I'm in Germany).
I had no time through the day to unpack the source and to build them.
and I've got compilation errors. I using Gentoo Linux, with gcc 3.4.3-20050110.
I realy did not even tried to correct this problem, I just whant to know, how do i get access to CVS.
DO NOT POINT ME TO FAQ ! I've seen it. its useless.
The simple question is: what credentials i have to use ?
There is no answer on the forum as far as in documentation too !
I used search (up right this page :) ) on the forum and all another parts of site with a keyword CVS.
And I've got no answer. It is already 3 hours past since i started to look for this information ... nothing :(

Small remark.
I belive the design of the site make it difficult to locate the information you are need. "My Shortcuts" is very nice feature, as far as you do not need to edit the name of shortcut.
I have following Shortcuts now:
x Unknown
x View Resource
x View Resource
x Unknown
Is that because of firefox , I use ?
Thanks in advance for any tips on how to do or whom to ask :)

The real problem can be my compiler :) So it is not one that is supported :)
The error message is a bit stupid, it is seems as a compiler bug, i'll try another "recomended" one.
But, is there no way to get an updates ?

Oh ... installers ??? Those once i downloaded today morning ? oops ... :)The real problem can be my compiler :) So it is not one that is supported :)

The CVS for TGE still works (or at least it did at the time of Ben Garney's .Plan when I downloaded the TGE 1.4 source [TGE 1.4 is not ready yet, see Ben's plan for more info, :)]).

On the updates, you are just supposed to wait till a new installer, :(.The CVS for TGE still works (or at least it did at the time of Ben Garney's .Plan when I downloaded the TGE 1.4 source [TGE 1.4 is not ready yet, see Ben's plan for more info, :)]).

If you really want to use that version (not recommended...it is *not* stable) then you can use the info you find on the TSE page I linked (just change tse to torque in the options). In short the options are pserver:your_login@cvs.garagegames.com:/cvs/torque (TCP/IP compression 3).

CVS was depreciated because it made the entry point too high for most of the users buying TGE and created support problems for GG. They moved to quarterly (or so) code drops. Generally there isn't any difference between what is in CVS and what is in the installers. However, at the moment there is a Release Candidate for 1.4 checked in as HEAD (as mentioned in Ben's .plan). The full version of 1.4 should be out fairly soon in installer format.If you really want to use that version (not recommended...it is *not* stable) then you can use the info you find on the TSE page I linked (just change tse to torque in the options).

Did anyone ever post a response regarding the x Unknown with the My Garage frame? This is happening to me on Windows XP with Netscape 7.2 and IE. Thanx.

It's unknown because the site doesn't know what the title of the page is. I would recommend using a service like [url]http://del.icio.us/[url] to track boomarks into the site - it's a lot more powerful than anything we could realistically maintain as part of the main site... :)

[ken@newred TorqueCVS]$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:ScratchMonkey@cvs.garagegames.com:/cvs/tge
[ken@newred TorqueCVS]$ cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:ScratchMonkey@cvs.garagegames.com:2401/cvs/tge
CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.garagegames.com rejected access to /cvs/tge for user ScratchMonkey
Are we locked out now? Or did the patch change from the reference above?
The current TGE manual lacks info on CVS and the TSE manual link above is unavailable to TGE owners.
I see in Ben's plan that 1.4rc1 is available in CVS and I'd love to poke at that. (I'm good at poking at software. ;)) There's also a delicious hint of an "internal SVN repository". It'd be nice if GG switched the public CVS to SVN.

We haven't locked anyone out, but we're not going to be doing support on CVS related problems, either.

Have you tried /cvs/torque?We haven't locked anyone out, but we're not going to be doing support on CVS related problems, either.

Ah, seems to be working now with /cvs/torque. I'd tried that earlier but it failed with a "Fatal error, aborting", which I didn't notice was not a normal authentication failure. So I should be good to go now. Thanks.
