cvs -d :ext:FOO@cvs.gkernel.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gkernel co ext3
The branches being used are
cvs up -r ext3-1_0-branch # HEAD of ext3 development cvs up -r features-branch # For htree, ACLs etc
and there are a couple of other branches I use for tracking merges into Linus's and the -ac trees. The htree stuff is all that's new in the features-branch right now.
