This one:
cvs -z3 address@hidden:/webcvs co copyleft/copyleft.html
In order to facilitate your work I suggest you run
mkdir ~/www.gnu.org
cd ~/www.gnu.org
cvs -z3 address@hidden:/webcvs co .
before going to bed. The next morning you'll have the whole web site on
disk (300Mb) and it will be very confortable to work with.
cd ~/www.gnu.org/copyleft
edit copyleft.html
... edit some more files ...
cd ~/www.gnu.org
cvs -z3 -q commit -m 'I did this'
And read your mail until it finishes. When you come back after 3 weeks
of inactivity do the following:
cd ~/www.gnu.org
cvs -z3 -q update -d
(update is a *lot* less expensive than an initial checkout)
Note that whenever your are in a directory that was checked out, you can
omit the -d.....
Cheers,
