## CVS and FTP access

License README CVS and FTP access Groff dependencies Bug reports Mailing lists NEWS VERSION 1.20.1 NEWS VERSION 1.20 NEWS VERSION 1.19.2 NEWS VERSION 1.19.1 NEWS VERSION 1.19 NEWS VERSION 1.18.1 NEWS VERSION 1.18 | The most recent released version of groff is always available by anonymous ftp. The current development version of groff is available from a CVS repository. You can access it by first selecting a parent directory in which to create a working copy (call it, say, ~/cvswork), and then executing the commands
    cd ~/cvswork
    cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.gnu.org/sources/groff -z5 co groff
This creates a subdirectory, ~/cvswork/groff, with a ‘checked out’ copy of the CVS repository. An update of this working copy may be achieved, at any later time by invoking the commands
    cd ~/cvswork/groff
    cvs -z5 update -dP
Please read the CVS info pages for further details. Finally, it is possible to access the CVS with a web browser. Alternatively, you can download snapshots (which are updated twice a day). The complete groff source as a single file is available here. A diff file relative to groff-⟨version⟩, the latest official groff release is available at `http://groff.ffii.org/groff/devel/groff-⟨version⟩-current.diff.gz` Assuming that groff-⟨version⟩.tar.gz and groff-⟨version⟩-current.diff.gz are in the same directory, do the following to apply the diff file:
    tar xzvf groff-⟨version⟩.tar.gz
    cd groff-⟨version⟩
    gunzip -c ../groff-⟨version⟩-current.diff.gz | patch -p1
