Sam,

Looking at the generated build.bat (generated by gen.bat) I can see it
will do a CVS update/checkout and then copy all the files to basedir.

I guess there are 2 reasons :
a) to make sure you start with clean directories
b) to still be able to build even if the network connection is down ?
(i.e. if the cvs update fails)

I'm asking because the projects I am building are about 320 Mo in size
and it takes forever to do a xcopy. It is faster to do a clean update
(update -A -C -d -P).

For b), if the cvs update fails, what's the point in doing the build ?

Conclusion: why couldn't we do a clean update instead of copying the
whole CVS workspace copy ?

I'm sure I'm missing something ...
Thanks
-Vincent
