CVSSUCK(1)						      General Commands Manual							CVSSUCK(1)

NAME
cvssuck - inefficient cvs repository grabber using cvs command SYNOPSIS
cvssuck [-h] [-b] [-s] [-v] [-D debug-option,...] cvsroot [-o output-directory|-O output-base] [-l lock-directory|-L lock-base] module ... DESCRIPTION
CVSsuck is a mirroring tool for cvs repositories. Unlike other tools such as CVSup or rsync, it uses cvs command to access the repository. So, it works well with remote repositories without a special server or shell account. However it is inefficient and not perfect because cvs client/server protocol is not designed for mirroring. If a server provides special way to grab a repository, you shouldn't use CVS- suck. OPTIONS
-h prints help message. -b makes CVSsuck to traverse directories in breadth first. CVSsuck traverses directory in depth first by default. -s specifies skeleton mode. In this mode, CVSsuck grabs only first revision of the trunk, 1.1, branchpoints, head of branches and tagged revisions. Note that first two (first revision of the trunk and 1.1) is identical in usual case. -v makes CVSsuck verbosely. This is same as `-D command,attic,leavetmp'. -D debug-option,... specifies debug options. Available debug options are listed by `cvssuck -h'. -o output-directory specifies the directory to store grabbed repository. A remote RCS file module/dir/file,v in cvsroot will be stored in output-direc- tory/dir/file,v. -O output-base specifies the base directory to store grabbed repository. A remote RCS file module/dir/file,v in cvsroot will be stored in output- base/module/dir/file,v. -o and -O is exclusive. The last specified before module is effective. By default, CVSsuck behaves as that current directory is specified with -O. -l lock-directory specifies the directory of CVS style lock. -L lock-base specifies the base directory of CVS style lock. -l and -L is exclusive. A lock directory should be specified after an output directory. The last specified before module after an output directory is effective. By default, CVSsuck assumes a lock directory is same as output directory. EXAMPLES
% cvssuck :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs cvssuck grabs the module cvssuck in the repository :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs into the directory cvssuck. % cvssuck :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs cvssuck cvs-info grabs the modules cvssuck and cvs-info. % cvssuck :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs -O $HOME/.cvsroot cvssuck grabs the module cvssuck into $HOME/.cvsroot/cvssuck. % cvssuck :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs -O $HOME/.cvsroot -L $HOME/.cvslock cvssuck grabs the module cvssuck into $HOME/.cvsroot/cvssuck with the lock directory $HOME/.cvslock/cvssuck. % cvssuck :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs -o $HOME/.cvsroot/cvs/suck cvssuck grabs the module cvssuck into $HOME/.cvsroot/cvs/suck. % cvssuck -s :pserver:anonymous@cvs.m17n.org:/cvs/cvs cvssuck grabs needy revisions (skeleton) of the module cvssuck.

It's inefficient. It's not perfect because revisions stated as `dead' cannot be retrieved. However it is not observable until the state is changed by `cvs admin -s'. 25 September 2000 CVSSUCK(1)
