Importing into the repository
- For the files you want to add to your repository, make sure that they are available in their own folder somewhere else on your system. e.g. if you want to have drupal in your repository, extract all the files from the tarball into a folder not in your c:\cvs folder.
- Open up the Windows command prompt and change to the folder that has all the files in it.
- Type the following:
c:\temp\drupal> cvs import drupal INITIAL start
- 'drupal' is the folder to create in the repository
- 'INITIAL' is the vendor tag (not sure what its for, but this was a suggestion on another site)
- 'start' is the release tag, so can be whatever you want
- This will then copy the files and subfolders to the repository, into a new folder. You can now delete these files, as they are not needed anymore.
- Repeat these steps for each module/theme/whatever that you want stored in the repository.
