Description-en: CVS utilities for use in working directories
Several utilities which are used to facilitate working with the
files in the working directory of a developer using CVS.
.
The utilities included in this package are:
.
+ cvsu: Offline "cvs update" simulator. Lists the files found in
the current directory (or in the directories which you
specify).
+ cvsco: "Cruel checkout". Removes results of compilation and
discards local changes. Deletes all the files except
listed unmodified ones and checks out everything which
seems to be missing.
+ cvsdiscard: Discards local changes but keeps results of compilation.
Works like "cvsco", but only deletes files which are
likely to cause merge conflicts.
+ cvspurge: CVS-based "make maintainer-clean". Removes results of
compilation but keeps local changes intact. Removes
unknown files, but keeps changes in files known to CVS.
+ cvstrim: Removes files and directories unknown to CVS.
+ cvschroot: Makes it possible to change CVS/Root in all subdirectories
to the given value.
+ cvsdo: Simulates some of the CVS commands (currently add, remove
and diff) without any access to the CVS server.
+ cvsnotag: Reports untagged files.
