The whole contributor page lists a step by step howto for using the CVS. The only source mentioned to get help with CVS it the already mentioned link. And this link, additionally, gives a step by step howto about using cvs. All over all someone gets pretty fast the idea that you in fact do not have to know anything else about cvs. If this knowledge is needed to be a contributor here it should be mentioned somewhere. > > Or that this was not mentioned in the CVS faq which is meant to explain > > all cvs stuff for people who are not used to it? > > Probably an oversight. Feel free to add it to the CVS faq wiki page. > No. I do not have the detailed knowledge to improve the CVS faq because I do not even know enough to help myself (as you have noticed) and therefore I am not the best person to help others with the same problem. Additionally [1] (section "Be careful when editing key guides") is pretty clear about working on key guides. As a beginner you are supposed to ask others.
