For the lazy sods amongst us (me, me, me!), it is worth knowing about
~/.cvsrc as well. This is a file that is read to get options that are
applied to each cvs command every time you execute that command. For
example, my one looks like:
cvs -q
update -P -d
diff -u
(indented for readability ... left justified in real life).
This means, always use the -q (quiet) option for any cvs command, use -P
(prune empty directories) and -d (get any new directories) when running
an update and pass -u (unified diff format) to the diff command.
The second line, in particular, means that you never have to worry about
empty directories again. :)
Cheers,
Malcolm
