Including 3rd party code in CVS

Let's say we want to import the excellent database abstraction layer
ADOdb version 3.60 into our CVS repository:

$ wget http://phplens.com/lens/dl/adodb360.tgz
$ tar xvzf adodb360.tgz
$ rm adodb360.tgz
$ cd adodb
$ cvs import -m 'Imported ADOdb 3.60' _adodb PHPLENS_COM R3_60
$ cd ..
$ rm -fr adodb

Now, we're going to check it out from CVS and fix a bug we found:

$ cvs checkout _adodb
$ cd _adodb
...hack, chop, whittle...
$ cvs commit -m "Fixed bug #12345: Replace doesn't use native REPLACE command, if available"
$ cd ..
$ rm -fr _adodb

Now, we want to upgrade to version 3.70:

$ wget http://phplens.com/lens/dl/adodb370.tgz
$ tar xvzf adodb370.tgz
$ rm adodb370.tgz
$ cd adodb
$ cvs import -m 'Imported ADOdb 3.70' _adodb PHPLENS_COM R3_70

This command completed successfully, but reported the following:

1 conflicts created by this import.
Use the following command to help the merge:

cvs checkout -j<prev_rel_tag> -jR3_70 _adodb
</prev_rel_tag>

So, let's delete the imported directory:

$ cd ..
$ rm -fr adodb

And checkout as instructed above.

$ cvs checkout -jR3_60 -jR3_70 _adodb

Manually resolve any conflicts that were reported.

Now, let's commit our 3.60 changes into 3.70:

$ cvs commit -m 'Merged our 3.60 changes into 3.70'

And finally remove our directory:

$ rm -fr _adodb

How merge to HEAD is done: Let's say we want to import the excellent database abstraction layer ADOdb version 4.60 into our CVS repository:

ADOdb:

  6
: $ cd ..
  
7: $ rm -fr adodb
?>


Now, we're going to check it out from CVS and fix a bug we found:


<?php
  1

  2
: $ cd _adodb
  3
: ...hackchopwhittle...
  
4: $ cvs commit -"Fixed bug #12345: Replace doesn't use native REPLACE command, if available"
  
5: $ cd ..
  
6: $ rm -fr _adodb

?>


This command completed successfully, but reported the following:


<?php

1 conflicts created by this import.
  
2: Use the following command to help the merge:
  
3cvs checkout --jR4_62 _adodb
?>


So, let's delete the imported directory ...


<?php
  1
: $ cd ..
  
2: $ rm -fr adodb
?>


... and checkout as instructed above


<?php
  1
: $ cvs checkout -jR4_60 -jR4_62 _adodb
  2
Manually resolve any conflicts that were reported

Now, let's commit our 4.60 changes into 4.62:


<?php
  1
: $ cvs commit -'Merged our 4.60 changes into 4.62'
?>


And finally remove our directory:


<?php

?>
