    • Repository: Select an existing CVS repository from the dropdown menu.
      To define a new one, click New Repository.

If you have not created a repository yet, enter the information required to identify and connect to the repository location:

      • Host - The host address (e.g. mycomputer.com).

      • User - The user name with which you connect to the repository.

      • Password - The password for the user name.
