Package: cvs
Version: 1.10.8-1
Severity: normal

Correct me if I am wrong, but shouldn't cvs release remove the CVS
directories in the directory tree but not the actual source tree?

It seems like it should be that way, if cvs release -d tree removes the
entire tree.

You can use cvs export for that.

The -d saves you the manual deletion of the files.

Quoting from http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html#release

So it seems cvs release is to release the locks and not to the remove
the CVS specific dirs like cvs export.

Closing.
