Personally, I usually work against a checkout from a local mirror of the CVS repository (which you can create via cvsup or rsync). With that setup, "cvs add" and "cvs diff -N" work fine, since you can arrange for write access to the local mirror. (I'm always surprised to hear that anyone does a non-trivial amount of work on Postgres without setting up a CVS mirror...) -Neil ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
