<b>CVS Snapshot:</b>
|
|
|
|
|
Bochs, like many other open source projects, uses CVS (Concurrent Version
|
|
|
|
|
System) to keep track of source code. Unlike the current release, the
|
|
|
|
|
CVS version of the sources contains everything the developers have written
|
|
|
|
|
to this date, and it can change daily (or even hourly). As a result, the
|
|
|
|
|
CVS version of Bochs will have more features and bug fixes than the release,
|
|
|
|
|
but also it may be somewhat less stable. You can decide if you prefer to go
|
|
|
|
|
exploring and try out our newest code, or stick with the better-tested
|
|
|
|
|
release. Since the CVS sources are always in motion, we take a snapshot each
|
|
|
|
|
night at some late hour after most developers should be in bed.
|

The CVS snapshots are provided as a convenience only. Of course, you could
|
|
|
|
|
also get the same information using CVS itself. Some of the benefits of
|
|
|
|
|
using CVS directly are: you can get any release or version, view the log
|
|
|
|
|
messages that say what files were changed, and make patches very easily
|
|
|
|
|
with "cvs diff -u".
