The history command is hopelessly baroque and really needs to be completely redesigned. The history command can produce a number of different kinds of reports; the options listed under "Reports" specify which kind of report to produce and thus are all mutually exclusive. -m generates a "Module History" report for the named module, which is not what you want. What you want is a "Committed Files" report (-c, which is exactly equivalent to your -xARM, but a tad more obvious). The division between "flags" and "options" is a complete mystery to me, too -- both specify selection criteria to apply to the history records. You've figured out -a and -D, what you haven't figured out (because it's not at all obvious) is that the way to specify a particular module is by using -p to specify the top-level repository directory you want (the report includes all files whose name *starts* with the specified string, not just those that are exactly equal). -Larry Jones Archaeologists have the most mind-numbing job on the planet. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
