Specifying a repository

Before we can share our project with other users we must first specify an available repository.

Open the CVS Repository Browsing perspective. The top left view shows all of the CVS repositories that we are currently working with. As you can see, the view is empty, meaning we still need to specify a repository.
In the context menu of the CVS Repositories view choose New > Repository Location...
In the CVS Repository Location wizard we need to fill in the location of our repository and our login information. You may require assistance from your repository administrator in order to fill in the necessary information.
In the Host field, type the address of the host (e.g., "teamsamples.com").
In the Repository path field, type the path for the repository at the host address (e.g., "/home/cvsroot/repositoryName").
In the User field, type the user name under which you want to connect.
In the Password field, type your password.
In the Connection type field, select the type of CVS connection for the repository (The default is pserver).
Leave Use Default Port enabled.
By default the Validate location on finish is checked.
Click Finish when you are done.

Since we checked Validate location on finish, the wizard will now attempt to validate the information by connecting to the repository. In doing so it may prompt you for your password. Note that the repository connection is only used to validate the information.
Observe that the Repositories view now shows the new repository location.
