You can try doing:
cvs -n update <file>
This will show the output that would probably be generated by the
update command without actually doing anything (output sometimes
differs). You can read more about this at:
http://cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_16.html#SEC117
If you want to see the actual diffs, you can do:
cvs diff <file>
This will show you in diff format the differences between your local
copy and the repository. You can read more about this at:
