cvs: Checkout a project.
$ cvs checkout ${project_name}
try on your machine
The command "cvs checkout ${project_name}" is used in CVS (Concurrent Versions System) to download or retrieve the latest version of a specific project from a CVS repository.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "cvs": This is the CVS command-line tool.
- "checkout": This command is used to create a local working copy of a project from the CVS repository.
- "${project_name}": This is a placeholder or variable that should be replaced with the actual name of the project you wish to download. For example, if your project name is "myproject", you would replace "${project_name}" with "myproject" in the command.
Overall, this command allows you to obtain a local copy of a project stored in CVS, which you can then work on and make changes to.
