First you need to create a CVS repository containing the existing Quanta |
| 29 |
project, using cvs import. Then checkout that repository somewhere with cvs |
| 30 |
checkout. Finally use the newly checked out copy as the Quanta project. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
However it sounds to me as though you first need to learn something about CVS. |
| 33 |
There are many tutorials on the web, e.g. |
| 34 |
<http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=6096> which is targetted at people |
| 35 |
using Cervisia, or |
| 36 |
<http://www.csc.calpoly.edu/~dbutler/tutorials/winter96/cvs/> which is a more |
| 37 |
general purpose tutorial. |
