grep for leading 'U' in cvs output. In the form of : U <path/to/my.file> Watch out for other things like 'M' (locally modified) or 'C' (confilct). Also, it may be better to add watches and watch actions to the cvs server. You could have the watch post changed file name to a log and have your crontab check that file for changes. This way you only have to update the files/modules that are listed in the change file and you don't have to do a full update just to find a single file change. Just a thought. _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
