-<font size="+3">Getting the source via CVS</font>
-
-<p>If you would like to keep up with the current sources on a regular
-basis, you can fetch them from our CVS server and then use CVS to
-retrieve updates from time to time.
-
-<P>To do this you first need a local copy of CVS (Concurrent Version Control
-System), which you can get from
-<A HREF="http://www.cyclic.com/">http://www.cyclic.com/</A> or
-any GNU software archive site. Currently we recommend version 1.9.
-
-<P>Once you have installed the CVS software, do this:
-<PRE>
-cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login
-</PRE>
-You will be prompted for a password; enter '<tt>postgresql</tt>'.
-You should only need to do this once, since the password will be
-saved in <tt>.cvspass</tt> in your home directory.
-
-<P>Having logged in, you are ready to fetch the PostgreSQL sources.
-Do this:
-<PRE>
-cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/usr/local/cvsroot co -P pgsql
-</PRE>
-which will install the PostgreSQL sources into a subdirectory <tt>pgsql</tt>
-of the directory you are currently in.
-
-<P>(If you have a fast link to the Internet, you may not need <tt>-z3</tt>,
-which instructs CVS to use gzip compression for transferred data. But
-on a modem-speed link, it's a very substantial win.)
-
-<P>This initial checkout is a little slower than simply downloading
-a <tt>tar.gz</tt> file; expect it to take 40 minutes or so if you
-have a 28.8K modem. The advantage of CVS doesn't show up until you
-want to update the file set later on.
-
-<P>Whenever you want to update to the latest CVS sources, <tt>cd</tt> into
-the <tt>pgsql</tt> subdirectory, and issue
-<PRE>
-cvs -z3 update -d -P
-</PRE>
-This will fetch only the changes since the last time you updated.
-You can update in just a couple of minutes, typically, even over
-a modem-speed line.
-
-<P>You can save yourself some typing by making a file <tt>.cvsrc</tt>
-in your home directory that contains
-
-<PRE>
-cvs -z3
-update -d -P
-</PRE>
-
-This supplies the <tt>-z3</tt> option to all cvs commands, and the
-<tt>-d</tt> and <tt>-P</tt> options to cvs update. Then you just have
-to say
-<PRE>
-cvs update
-</PRE>
-to update your files.
-
-<P><strong>CAUTION:</strong> some versions of CVS have a bug that
-causes all checked-out files to be stored world-writable in your
-directory. If you see that this has happened, you can do something like
-<PRE>
-chmod -R go-w pgsql
-</PRE>
-to set the permissions properly. This bug is allegedly fixed in the
-latest beta version of CVS, 1.9.28 ... but it may have other, less
-predictable bugs.
-
-<P>CVS can do a lot of other things, such as fetching prior revisions
-of the PostgreSQL sources rather than the latest development version.
-For more info consult the manual that comes with CVS, or see the online
-documentation at <A HREF="http://www.cyclic.com/">http://www.cyclic.com/</A>.
