You're right. For consistency's sake, "cvs up -C file" should get a
clean copy
of the HEAD. I think, in general, there should be a way to specify the
base
revision (is there a BASE alias similar to HEAD?)
Ok, since HEAD means different things, etc, I'd like to

A trailing ",v" on filenames is ubiquitous in CVS repositories.

As for determining the branch origin:
Assume: I can tell what branch-tag is associated with a given file.
IF: a commit has been done on this branch, then the information is in the RCS
file. I can get the branch number; ASSUMPTION: I can go to the parent branch
number by removing the last two

Your inetd.conf is wrong -- you're either giving CVS a bad option or an
unknown subcommand (or no subcommand at all), so it's printing its usage

No it doesn't; when you get an unrecognized auth response, you only get
a one-line message. It sounds
For loginfo scripts, you can specify %{Vsv} as the format string, which
gives you:
repository(\sold_version,filename,new_version)*
That's not too difficult to parse. Then there are the special cases of new
directories:
repository\s\-\s(New directory|Imported sources)

Hi,
We currently have CVS version 1.7 and need to upgrade to 1.10.8. Does
anyone know the procedure to do that? Do we have to do a full install
or is there a way to upgrade while preserving the Repository?
thanks a lot.

Do you have any suggestions to fix this?
Are you running with a local repository or client/server? If client/
server, what version of CVS is the server running? The last known y2k
bug was squashed in 1.10.8.

I wanted to follow a convention in naming the vendor branch for a
module, but I goofed, and I now have a vendor branch with a highly
unintuitive name. This vendor branch will, in the future, need to
accept new imports as the vendor releases them. Is there a way for
me to rename the vendor

Just build the new version and install it. You don't need to do "cvs

Not to point out the obvious, but this statement is a contradiction in
a sense. If you've never used CVS, then how can you "upgrade"? Also,
it lacks other vital information such as;
Hi!
Should I be using CVS Version 1.10 or 1.10.8?? This is a critical development

What are the differences between the two?
