Some ideas on committing:

<seemant> cvs add pkg directory
<seemant> cvs add name of ebuild
<seemant> (make sure FEATURES="cvs" is in your make.conf, btw)
<seemant> emerge it -- which will create files/ and add the digest
<seemant> echangelog "Your ChangeLog message"
<seemant> cvs add ChangeLog
<seemant> cvs update -dP
<seemant> repoman commit


<johnm> keychain ~/.ssh/id_rsa ~/.ssh/id_dsa
<johnm> . ~/.keychain/${HOSTNAME}-sh
<johnm> add that to your .bash_profile
<johnm> youll want to add these too:
<spyderous> add both lines?
<johnm> export CVS_RSH=ssh
<johnm> export CVSROOT=johnm@cvs.gentoo.org:/home/cvsroot
<johnm> export ECHANGELOG_USER="John Mylchreest <johnm@gentoo.org>;"
<johnm> into your bashrc
<johnm> cd cvsroot/pcategory/package
<johnm> cvs update -dP
<johnm> cp /Change/files/and/things ./
<johnm> you must cvs add before you repoman scan
<johnm> repoman scan
<johnm> echangelog "This is what I changed today"
<johnm> repoman ci -m "This is what I changed today"
<johnm> if theres any files which dont exist yet, ie: a new ebuild bump
<johnm> I keep my cvs portage tree in ~/gentoo-x86
<johnm> which package is it?
<spyderous> xfree-drm
<spyderous> -r3 in particular
<johnm> :)
<johnm> repoman working ok?
<spyderous> RepoMan sez: "If everyone were like you, I'd be out of business!"
<johnm> :)
<johnm> that means it's scanned OK, without any issues
<johnm> it logs QA problems
<johnm> ie: no digest
<johnm> invalid license
<johnm> things like that
<johnm> you should NEVER actually cvs commit
<johnm> let repoman do that
<johnm> I'm unsure of exactly what it does now. but it automatically adds digests and things anyways
<johnm> so you shouldn't ever need to cvs add files/digest
<spyderous> ok, did the repoman ci
<johnm> http://cvs.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gentoo-x86/x11-base/xfree-drm/
<johnm> all committed

Distfiles:
scp whatever spyderous@cvs.gentoo.org:/space/distfiles-local/
