Well, we basically abandoned our CVS tree some time ago. Any further
development, all merging from Linus's upstream patches was only done
in GIT.  I've been a long-term CVS user--and since I'm using GIT, my
life got easier. Really.

Depending on distribution, install GIT or git-core or however the
package is calles (for Debian, 'apt-get install git-core' will do the
job.)  Then clone the repository:

$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jbglaw/vax-linux.git

Then check-out the "vax4linus" branch:

$ cd vax-linux
$ git checkout vax4linus

Right here, you'll have the vax-linux source tree.

MfG, JBG
