I have trouble getting the 'cvs history' command to work.
When I run the 'cvs history -p gfdtsadm -c request' command, hoping to get
all commits by anyone for the file 'request' in module 'gfdtsadm', I get 23 records
and none of them are for the file 'request'.
The 23 matching records are for files other than 'request' in module 'gfdtsadm'
and other files in other modules in the same source tree.
I am accessing the repository using cvs client 1.10 from a solaris 2.6 box
accessing the repository running on a solaris 2.8 box.
On the server, the CVS/history file in the source tree has some records for the
'request' file of 'gfdtsadm' module:
$ grep request history | grep gfdtsadm
M401859a2|sz84534|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.1.1.1.2.1|request
M4027bd56|sz84534|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.1.1.1.2.2|request
M40310062|sz84534|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.1.1.1.2.3|request
M403286c1|vk84407|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.1.1.1.2.4|request
M4033baf7|fdtssrc|~/tmpwork/wc/MAIN/gfdtsadm|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.2|request
M403e7fbe|nm79568|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.3|request
G4045f218|nm79568|<remote>*8|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.3|request
M4045f7ea|nm79568|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.4|request
M40522c77|nm79568|<remote>|gfdtsadm/pkg|1.5|request
The CVSROOT/config file of the source tree has no 'LogHistory' keyword specified in it
implying
the default log level for history file.
I have tried following variations of the history command but none of them give the
info I am looking for:
cvs history -w -p gfdtsadm -c request
cvs history -p gfdtsadm -c pkg/request
cvs history -p gdftsadm -c gfdtsadm/pkg/request
cvs history -m gfdtsadm -c request
cvs history -n gfdtsadm -c request
Does anyone know what is the difference between the -m, -p and -n options for the 'cvs
history' command?
