The below is the debian specific part, so unless you want to help out with
debian packageing, this can be safely ignored.

This is the content of the parted CVS, and the history of the CVS will be
imported here. I hear the devel tree is dead, so mayeb it can fall apart.

If you are interested only in following the main trunk, you will only be
interested in the trunk, and you need to do the following :

- Check-out :

  svn co svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/parted/upstream/trunk parted

- Anonymous check-out :

  svn co svn//svn.debian.org/svn/parted/upstream/trunk parted

Then you can go into the parted dir and do :

- Update : svn up

- Commit : svn ci

- Tagging : 

  svn cp svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/parted/upstream/trunk \
        svn+ssh://<user>@svn.debian.org/svn/parted/upstream/tags/<mytag>

Well, that is it for the most part, read the subversion book for details at :

  http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/index.html
  
and/or the svn builtin help, obtained by :

  svn help
