Drupalers,
I'm new to using CVS for checking out Drupal. I just tried to update an installation that I had installed via a CVS checkout.
Via the command line, and in the drupal directory, I typed: cvs update -dP
I was pleased to see some messages from the terminal that led me to believe it was a successful update. But after it was done, my site was still 5.3, like it was before the update.
Based on my limited knowledge of CVS, I think the problem might have been with my original CVS command, which was:
cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal co -r DRUPAL-5-3 drupal
Is this essentially impossible to update since I explicitly wrote 5-3? Should I just have written Drupal-5 to get the latest version of the Drupal 5 branch which would then be updatable with the cvs update command?
Do I need to start over with a fresh CVS checkout?
Would this be the correct command:
cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal co -r DRUPAL-5 drupal
Thanks for the help.
