<p>Maxime Henrion is working on a rewrite of CVSup in C, called csup, and he
has imported csup into the FreeBSD base system. It should be ready for use
in a stable environment, but there are however still several missing
features. The following list should be a good starting point:</p>
<p>csup is a port of the cvsup high-speed CVS repository replication
application from the original Modula-3 to the C lanaguage. It is now
distributed with FreeBSD, but is missing some important features that would
make useful projects to work on:</p>
<ul>
<li>Add support for authentication.</li>
<li>Working rsync support.</li>
<li>Optimize rcsfile handling.</li>
<li>Create a library out of the ports that might be of use in a C language
csupd.</li>
<li>Add support for shell commands sent by the server.</li>
<li>Add missing support for various CVSup options: -D, -a (requires
authentication support), -e and -E (requires shell commands support) and the
destDir parameter.</li>
<li>Work on a new csupd.</li>
</ul>
