Thanks for the quick response. I should rephrase my question. Yes I want to move a whole module back in time. I don't need to keep the changes that were made after that time in the repository. One way to do it is to do this: cvs export -D "11/15" module cd currentproject cvs remove * cp ../module/* . cvs add * cvs commit
I just know there is a better way to do it. So the question is: How do I move a module back to a previous date and begin working on it as if I hadn't made any changes. I want to change the current working version and discard all the information that might come after it.
