Beware cygwin and CVS - moving tree risks.

This is just a friendly note for anyone using cywin and CVS in a mixed environment (with samba and linux). As you are probably aware CVS stores it's control files as text files and does not like spurious \r's in random strings that it reads. FINE - trees checked out on unix remain as trees

Hi all, How can I checkout/get only those files which have changed since the time we had tagged a build. I am thinking of moving only these changes to the application environments. Request you to give your suggestion/solutions. Thanks Regards, -Gnana Shekar- TATA Consultancy Services

rdiff -l on Redhat 8.0

Hi, cvs rdiff -l does not seem to work on Redhat 8.0 with either cvs v1.11.2 or 1.11.5. It does a recursive check despite the -l. The -l worked fine on Redhat7.1 using cvs v1.11. Is this a known problem? am I doing something wrong? or do I win a prize?
