2.9. Testing your repository

At this point, you should have a working (though empty) CVS repository. Before we continue with setting up the pserver or importing source code, try logging in as one of the CVS users listed in your CVSROOT/passwd and test the checkout.

#test checkout in home directory of any cvs user
mkdir ~/src
cd ~/src
cvs co foundation

This should create foundation/ and foundation/CVS.
