i've checked the checkout options, and i thought "-d" was going to do it
for me, but it doesn't allow me to do the following.
imagine i have a several-level repository:
TOP/
a1/
a11/
a12/
...
b1/
b11/
b12/
...
and so on. trivially, i can set it up to check out the "TOP" module,
whereupon i will, of course, get everything.
but let's say i also want to check out any sub-directory as an
individual module as well and, just to make it trickier, i want the
ability to check out one of those modules *anywhere*, without pulling
down all of the directory hierarchy above it.
example: in my current directory, i want to check out module "b12",
do some work on it, then check it back in. so i want to do the following:
$ cvs co b12
$ ls
b12/
i know i can set up shortcuts so that b12 really means TOP/b1/b12, but
from what i can see, that would result in my checking out TOP/b1/b12 under
that directory structure, not what i'm after.
can this be done? does it even make any sense to ask the question?
rday
p.s. as a fallback, it would be acceptable for me to have to type
$ cvs co TOP/b1/b12
as long as what i get is still just the "b12" directory that i can check
back in to the same place when i'm done with it.
