3To update tradcpp to a new version:
4
5- Unpack the tradcpp distfile. Unless things have changed a lot
6 upstream, you can import the distribution directory directly as
7 external/bsd/tradcpp/dist without needing to munge or prepare it.
8- Update the build glue/reacharound makefile, if needed. For the
9 moment, we just include the distribution makefile as it's suitable,
10 and therefore things like source lists don't need to be synced. If
11 the distribution makefile becomes unsuitable, this will need to
12 change.
13- cvs import the new dist directory.
14- Merge. (As long as we're stuck using cvs, please avoid committing to
15 the default branch in the tradcpp/dist subtree so this step isn't
16 necessary, as it's a big headache.)
17- Fix any merge conflicts.
18- Commit the merge.
19- Commit any changes to the build glue.
20- Update doc/3RDPARTY with the new version.
21- Add a note to doc/CHANGES about the new version.
22
23Note that this is not the maintenance copy of tradcpp; it is
24maintained in its own hg repository.
25
26Please if possible avoid committing changes to this version; instead,
27please send them upstream. Issuing a new release only takes a few
28minutes and allows the fixes/updates to propagate to pkgsrc.
