i was wondering how some guys here are doing daily cvs updates and build xbmc daily.
for me it takes approx. 1 hour or a bit more to make a complete cvs download + xbmc build + check pm3 skin for changes and migrate my custom skin changes into the new pm3.
i am using xbmcdbr batch file for building my xbmc and everytime i am doing a complete fresh cvs download.
when i try to just "update" my local xbmc source folder from cvs the batch file skips cvs and goes directly to compiling..
so updating doesn't work and i have to do a complete fresh cvs download (which quite takes longer to download!. any hints for this?
anyway, what would be the correct way for doing daily updates and how long does the update take for you?
1 hour + checking if everything works fine after update etc. takes about 2 hours in total.
when i come home from work + these 2 hours for updating xbmc i have almost no time for something else.. :d so i am doing a xbmc update just weekly or every 2 weeks.
i am just wondering how you guys make daily updates (especially now for bug-bashing)? could you please describe exactly the steps you are doing?
many thanks in advance.
