I've been waiting for someone to point out that files in the repo have a ,v suffix, but since noone has, I'll do it ;-)
The command would be: find $CVSROOT -name foo.c,v Anyway, that's beside the point. Directly accessing the repo is bad etiquette :-) I'm wondering if "cvs -n co" would act like a "ls" of sorts. Nope, I get: cvs server: in directory olf: cvs [server aborted]: there is no version here; run 'cvs checkout' first Oh well, there goes that idea. Does anyone know if there's any reason why this shouldn't give the same output as "cvs co"?
