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:

+

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:

  • Add support for authentication.
  • +
  • Working rsync support.
  • +
  • Optimize rcsfile handling.
  • +
  • Create a library out of the ports that might be of use in a C language + csupd.
  • Add support for shell commands sent by the server.
  • Add missing support for various CVSup options: -D, -a (requires authentication support), -e and -E (requires shell commands support) and the destDir parameter.
  • +
  • Work on a new csupd.

Requirements:
