I'm new to the list. Is this a proper forum for CVS configuration
questions?

In order to get this to happen, you need to run the "cvs watch on"
command on the file.

Same tree no problem, same directory now that would require some thinking.

For what it's worth, this is Makefile I use in my CVS controlled dir to
populate the 'dot' files (does not overwrite writable files and allows you
to see the diffs):

Or just move the CVS directory. Here's a script I use to add files
to my repository. I use it (as root) to maintain my OS config files:
Why don't you create a subdirectory that you checkout
everything into.
Then from your home directory create symlinks into the subdirectory.
for instance:
cd
mkdir .real_home
cd .real_home
cvs co -d glew glew-home
cd ..
ln -s .real_home/glew-home/.cshrc .cschrc
I would actually write a script t

I'm not real sure how to do this, but I will do some scouting around. The LOG command
gives so much information, especially if you have a large number of files, that I'm
trying to find a way to minimize this to some extent.
Thanks for the comments.

The Vendor Tag is a "branch tag", which refers to the whole branch. It does not
point to any specific revision of files on the vendor branch, and, if used in a
cvs checkout command, will retrieve the newest revision of a file on the vendor
branch.
The Release Tag is a "normal tag", and refers

Howdy,
I'm setting up a new repository here, using cvs-1.10.8 source
unmodifed, compiled on Solaris 2.6-ish (gcc-2.7.2.2) and on
my NT4 machine (MSDev 6).
All the developers will be using NT clients, rsh'ing, a la:
CVSROOT=me@host:/cvs/master
So, I'm doing things from the client side.
Hello,
People who want to talk about the CvsGui project can now turn to the new

However concerns related to the cvs motor of WinCvs/MacCvs/gCvs can
*still* take place here since it's highly related

Are there plans to so differentiate in future? There should be,
IMO. Especially since it has long claime

Ok, I am working with cvs now, and everything seems to work now.
But, what isn't really clear to me, are the meaning of "vendor tag"
and "release tag" ?
Can someone please explain that to me, as I only find little
information about it in the cvs manual, which doesn't really make
sense to me.

I am responsible for moving my companies source code from StarTeam to CVS
control. What I need to do is a recursive update to the files in a nested
directory structure of a CVS project. The subdirectories of this nested
directory structure haven't changed only the files.

Seems to me the easiest fix is to add something like this to the
top of main()

}
It seems to me that this also works for CVS server, but I'm n

Ok, one thing that I did not say is that we don't use "cvs commit" directly
here, we have a wrapper which we run instead of "cvs commit" :-) and this
wrapper runs "cvs commit" after setting its pid in some environment
variable.
I didn't say how to do it if you don't have a wrapper, I just thought
Why can't you just go through the process of getting the pid twice?
For example:
