I've established a git repository for gretl on sourceforge, synced with
CVS as of this evening.

The CVS repository is still there at present as an insurance policy, but
it shouldn't be used for commits.

There's a brief "survival guide" at
http://ricardo.ecn.wfu.edu/~cottrell/gretl-git-basics.html
with info an accessing the repository and translation from cvs commands
to git ones for basic operations.

How does the logging-in work now? I used to do "ssh-add
<my_SF_keyfile>", type in my passphrase, then "export CVS_RSH=ssh",
before I commit something with cvs. I guess at least the export command
has to be changed.

I didn't have to do anything, ssh was clever enough to log me in automatically as per usual.

Another thing that may be useful to CVS users: an operation that I would perform very often (at least once a day, but often much more frequently than that) was

cvs diff -uw

mainly to check what Allin had done during the night (time zones are _so_ nice). You now simply do

git diff

since unified format is the default for git.
