Hi folks,

I'm needing a bit of guidance with my CVS module contrib techniques.

Here's my situation:

A year or so ago I created a simple module and managed to add it via CVS:

http://drupal.org/project/user_pic_perm

I'm not quite sure I did it right, but I ended up with a 5.x dev (HEAD) release and a 5.0 release.

Now a kind soul has ported my module to D6 and I'd like to take his .tgz file and somehow add it to CVS.

My first thought, just checkout HEAD, replace the files, and follow the instructions for creating a branch. Is this what needs to happen?

Any guidance step by step would be much appreciated. Thanks!

There's a section in the Developers' handbook that covers that. The main section on starting and maintaining your contribution starts at http://drupal.org/node/7765.

Yes I saw that page. I guess my specific questions would be how, given the way my CVS repository for that module is currently setup, would I go about creating a 6.x dev release?
