See the EXAMPLE section below for details. +.PP +Both gzip and bzip2 compressed tarballs will be created by default and +will be called \fIname[-version].tar.gz\fP and \fIname[-version].tar.bz2\fP. +The \fIname\fP component will be the last directory component of +\fIdirectory-in-module\fP unless otherwise specified by \-\-name, and +the \fIversion\fP component will not be included unless it is specified by +\-\-version. +.PP +Additional files from outside the CVS tree can be included in the final +packages by passing them after all other options (these are the +\fIaddfile\fP arguments displayed above). These additional files will +be placed in the top level directory of the final packages. +The \-\- that precedes them is optional. +.PP +Many options are available for customising these procedures, as seen below. +Note that cvs2dist will remove any temporary files that it creates. +.PP +This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +\fB\-n, \-\-name\fP \fIname\fP +The name of the package (to be used in the names of the final tarballs +and directories). Specifically, the compressed tarballs will be called +\fIname-version.tar.gz\fP and \fIname-version.tar.bz2\fP (see the +\-\-version option below for further information). +This package name defaults to the last directory component of +\fIdirectory-in-module\fP. +.TP +\fB\-v, \-\-version\fP \fIversion\fP +The version of the package (to be used in the names of the final +tarballs and directories). If this is not supplied, no version is used +at all (i.e., the compressed tarballs will just be called \fIname.tar.gz\fP +and \fIname.tar.bz2\fP). +.TP +\fB\-\-admin-dir\fP \fIdir\fP +The location of \fIadmin/\fP on the filesystem. Symbolic links may +be used. Defaults to \fIpath-to-module/admin\fP. +.TP +\fB\-\-cvs-root\fP \fIroot\fP +The value to use as CVSROOT when checking out translations from CVS. +Defaults to the CVSROOT environment variable. +If \-\-no-i18n is passed then this option has no effect. +.TP +\fB\-B, \-\-branch\fP \fIbranch\fP +Use the given CVS branch for checking out translations from CVS. +If \-\-no-i18n is passed then this option has no effect. +.TP +\fB\-\-no-i18n\fP +Do not check out any translations from CVS. +.TP +\fB\-\-no-i18n-lang\fP \fIlanguages\fP +Exclude the given language(s) when checking out translations from CVS. +The list of languages should be comma-separated, +such as \fI\-\-no-i18n-lang uk,de,en_GB\fP . +.TP +\fB\-\-log=\fP\fIlogfile\fP +Log all proceedings to the given logfile. Note that the = is essential, +and may not be omitted. +.TP +\fB\-l\fP +Log all proceedings to the default logfile in the current directory. +.TP +\fB\-m, \-\-make-unpackaged\fP +In addition to the compressed tarballs, an unpacked distribution will be +created in the current directory. +.TP +\fB\-g, \-\-no-gzip\fP +Do not create a gzip package (\fIname-version.tar.gz\fP). +.TP +\fB\-b, \-\-no-bz2, \-\-no-bzip2\fP +Do not create a bzip2 package (\fIname-version.tar.bz2\fP). +.TP +\fB\-o, \-\-only-directory\fP +Alias for \-mgb. No packages will be created, only an unpacked directory. +.TP +\fB\-r, \-\-required-header\fP \fIheader\fP +When the user runs configure, an error will be generated if +\fIheader\fP is not found on the user's system. +.TP +\fB\-e, \-\-required-header-error-message\fP \fImessage\fP +The error to display to a user when the header passed with +\-\-required-header is not found on the user's system. Defaults to a +sensible message. +.TP +\fB\-d, \-\-remove-hidden\fP +Remove hidden files and directories (e.g., dotfiles) from the packages. +.TP +\fB\-h, \-\-help\fP +Display instructions on how to use cvs2dist. +.TP +\fB\-\-replace-files\fP \fIpairs\fP +Move one or more files around in the final distribution packages. +The \fIpairs\fP argument should be a comma-separated list of +replacements to make. Each replacement specifies a single file to move, and +should be of the form \fIsource\fP@\fIdest\fP. +.br +For each replacement, the source file will be moved to the +destination file (in particular, the source file will be deleted). +All filenames are relative to the top-level directory +of the package. Spaces in filenames are not allowed. +.br +Please be careful when using this option! Try to avoid the use of .. +in the filenames, since it may cause unexpected problems. +.br +An example of this option might be +\fI\-\-replace-files take_this_file@move_it_here,configure.in.bot.dist@configure.in.bot\fP . +.SH EXAMPLE +The following example creates packages of the kolf picture plugin from +the CVS source tree currently checked out in \fI/sources\fP. +.PP +.RS +\fIexample$\fP cvs2dist /sources/kdegames kolf/objects/picture +\-n kolf-picture \-v 0.9 \-r "kolf/game.h" \-\-log ~/tmp/extra-file +.RE +.PP +The packages will be named \fIkolf-picture-0.9\fP and +the process will be logged. For configure to succeed when a user builds +these packages, the header \fIkolf/game.h\fP must be installed or an +error will occur. The additional file \fI~/tmp/extra-file\fP will be +included in the packages even though it is not part of the CVS source tree. +.SH FILES +.TP +\fI~/.cvs2distrc\fP +Any options found in this file will be +added to the beginning of the command-line arguments. +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR cvs (1). +.PP +For the latest updates to this script, see the cvs2dist website +\fIhttp://www.katzbrown.com/shiritsu/programming/cvs2dist/\fP. +.SH AUTHOR +cvs2dist was written by Jason Katz-Brown <jason@katzbrown.com>, +Sebastian Stein <seb.stein@hpfsc.de>, Dominique Devriese <devriese@kde.org> +and Michael Buesch <mbuesch@freenet.de>. +.br +This manual page was prepared by Ben Burton <bab@debian.org> +for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). |
