<h2>IRC</h2>
|
|

<p>While #freebsd channels exist on various IRC networks, the FreeBSD

project does not control them or endorse IRC as a support medium.
|
|
||||||
You may be ignored, insulted, or kicked out if you ask questions on
|
|
||||||
any channel in IRC, though you may have slightly better luck
|
|
||||||
in channels named #freebsdhelp where such exist. If you
|
|
||||||
want to try these or any other channels on IRC, it is nonetheless
|
|
||||||
at your own risk and any complaints about conduct on those channels
|
|
||||||
should not be directed to the FreeBSD project. See also

itself. In some cases it may be reporting a mistake in the

documentation (which could be a simple typo). In other cases it may
|
|
||||||
be a 'wishlist' item that the submitter would like to see incorporated
|
|
||||||
in to FreeBSD. In many cases a PR contains a port which has been

prepared for inclusion in the FreeBSD

<p>Problem reports start 'open', and are closed as the issue they report

is resolved. In addition, each PR is assigned a unique tracking ID
|
|
||||||
to ensure that it is not lost. Many FreeBSD changes include the
|
|
||||||
tracking ID of the PR that prompted the change.</p>

when you should submit a problem report, what you are expected
|
|
||||||
to include in one, and what the best way to submit your problem
|
|
||||||
report is. Some useful background information is also contained

<h2><a href="http://cvsweb.FreeBSD.org/">CVS Repository</a></h2>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<p><a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?cvs">CVS</a> (the
|
|
||||||
Concurrent Version System) is the tool we use for keeping our sources
|
|
||||||
under control. Every change (with accompanying log message explaining
|
|
||||||
its purpose) from FreeBSD 2.0 to the present is stored here. It can be
|
|
||||||
easily viewed from the web interface mentioned below. To obtain a complete copy
|
|
||||||
of the FreeBSD CVS repository or any of the development branches inside
|
|
||||||
it, you may choose any one of following options:</p>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<ul>
|
|
||||||
<li><a href="doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html">cvsup</a> if you are looking
|
|
||||||
for on-demand, low overhead access using a custom utility (written in
|
|
||||||
Modula-3 no less).</li>

|
|
||||||
<li><a name="anoncvs" href="doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/anoncvs.html">anoncvs</a>
|
|
||||||
if you are looking for on-demand access that has higher overhead than
|
|
||||||
cvsup (in terms of wall time and bytes transferred) but is easier to use
|
|
||||||
for checking out small pieces of the tree and requires nothing more
|
|
||||||
than the cvs tools already bundled with FreeBSD.</li>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<li><a href="doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ctm.html">CTM</a> if you are looking for
|
|
||||||
very low overhead, batch-mode access (basically, patches through
|
|
||||||
email).</li>
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
<li>The <a href="http://cvsweb.FreeBSD.org/">web interface</a>
|
|
||||||
if you are looking to simply browse the repository in search of a
|
|
||||||
specific change or file revision.</li>
|
|
||||||
|
|

<li>Finally, if you have got bandwidth to burn or you prefer / are forced
