Hello Scott, I only use the diff from IDEA's CVS support (SmartCVS' integrated diff does not lets you select text -- but you can define an external diff tool). For all other CVS actions I use the externally running SmartCVS. It provides me a better view of the whole project than any IDE can do. SmartCVS sorts the files in a smart way per default, so you cannot miss them to add/remove or commit. And it has a very cool "Smart Commit" action: Select all new, missing and modified files, press "Smart Commit", enter the commit message and the new files are added, the missing files are removed and finally all added, removed and modified files are committed.
I personally do not need a *powerful* vcs support in any IDE, I like to use external tools, especially with CVS, because you simply can use another tool, if you do not like the currently used one any more. ~Mike >Subject: RE: [Eap-features] CVS indication at the package/directory level > From: Scott Sirovy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2002 12:35:17 -0600 > To: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Hi Mike. > >We are reviewing CVS clients at the moment so that is definitely good to >know -- thanks. > >Since most of my work is inside IDEA I requested an update for IDEA's CVS >integration.
