You should make a mirror of the archive at work (to another directory), and copy that mirror to CD. Alternatively, you can just copy the original archive to CD, and at home copy to HD again copying the "name" file to "mirror" in =meta-info in the archive tree (this makes it a mirror). Then you can register the archive you copied off the CD as your local mirror.This sounds like getting 60 MB via my modem? I definitely don't want to do this.
No, you can't use any of the stuff you copied because it only contains a current snapshot, no archive data.> What I would recommend is to create a mirror of the original archive, and> put *that* on a CD.I suppose I can use the stuff I copied for that, can't I? It sounds like I have to delete all files which don't belong to arch?
No, you're not fooling arch at all. First, you're working with a copy of the archive (mirror), and arch creates your pristine stuff from that first, then you change the archive registration to the original on the web. And yes, they need be identical (well, the copy can be a subset of the original, but may not contain anything different from the original).So this is fooling arch into believing that my pristine is from the project archive somewhere on the web? Is it necessary for this step that they are identical at that moment? (I guess not)
