# 1. setup the environment
# apt install busybox-static
mkdir -p test.root/bin
cp /usr/bin/busybox test.root/bin # busybox must be a static binary

# 2. start the virtual env (without root)
unshare --map-root-user chroot test.root /bin/busybox ash
# with root: chroot test.root /bin/busybox ash

# 3. link busybox applets so no need to type busybox everytime

convert sourceforge cvs root to git repo

This method doesn't require cvs at all. Instead, a python script called cvs2svn is needed.

using project "rltiles" as example:

# download cvs repo
rsync -av rsync://rltiles.cvs.sourceforge.net/cvsroot/rltiles/\* rltiles-cvs
