Hi..
I was just reading the page
http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=grub
and I noticed that the instructions for cvs downloading were not as
short as they could be.
It turns out that you don't have to do the 'cvs login' command, because
you can specify the password in the 'cvs co' command.
Right after the username, if you put an extra colon, you can then insert
the password. In the case of savannah, the password is blank for
anoncvs, so the resulting command is:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs:@subversions.gnu.org:/webcvs co software/grub
^extra colon
Since it doesn't ask for a password, it's useful for scripts and such.
Thanks for running this service!
