Hi. I am new to the list, so please be gentle.
I had a disk-crash. But I happend to save the home partition. I have a rather old backup of the CVS repository that I have now reestablished plus a more recent versions of some directories checked out of the CVS prior to the crash. I now want to update (commit) my working revisions of the files for those directories that I have checked out prior to the disk-crash. I get status reports such as cvs server: thesis.ps is no longer in the repository =================================================================== File: thesis.ps Status: Entry Invalid Working revision: 1.1 Repository revision: No revision control file Sticky Tag: (none) Sticky Date: (none) Sticky Options: (none) =================================================================== File: thesis.tex Status: Needs Patch Working revision: 1.75 Repository revision: 1.31 /usr/local/cvsroot/speciale/thesis/thesis.tex,v Sticky Tag: (none) Sticky Date: (none) Sticky Options: (none) Since the CVS repository is rather old, some files where not added to CVS at the time of the backup. But the working repository CVS-subdirectory contains information that they are. Other files have revision numbers far larger than those in the CVS. How can I easily make my CVS repository up-to-date only loosing the history information between time of backup and now (working revision)? There are many directories, so I would prefer no manual changes to CVS sub directories in working revision directory. Please help. Thanks.
