Meta-CVS 1.1.98 (1.1 branch)

Meta-CVS is version control system created around CVS. It retains most of the features of CVS while adding support for first class directory structure versioning, storage of symbolic links, and versioning of execute permissions and user-defined properties. Meta-CVS greatly simplifies branching and merging by keeping track of what is merged where. It records file types and automatically assigns a CVS keyword expansion mode to newly added files whose suffixes match previously recorded types. Meta-CVS also has an importing feature that automatically figures out renames and moves, making it possible to easily keep up with patches from multiple sources in spite of directory structure changes.License: GNU General Public License (GPL)Changes:
Major changes have been made to how Meta-CVS is built. It now adheres to the de-facto configure/make/make install standard. A C compiler is no longer required, only an installation of CLISP (but only glibc and cygwin are supported target platforms, since the program now targets the platform ABI directly rather than through C wrappers). The output of certain commands is now automatically filtered to convert the F-hex names to paths.Image

NAME
cvscheck - Offline status report for files in a checked-out CVS module. SYNOPSIS
cvscheck [dir] DESCRIPTION
cvscheck prints information about the status of your local CVS checkout without communicating with the server. This means it is extremely fast and does not require a network connection. The given directory and all of its subdirectories will be processed recursively. If no directory is given, the current directory and its recursed subdirectories will be used. Each file with an interesting status will be printed with a status character in front of its name. The status characters are as follows. ? foobar.c The file is not known to CVS M foobar.c The file is definitely locally modified m foobar.c The file might have local changes. You should diff with the server to make sure. C foobar.c The file has a CVS conflict and therefore cannot be committed. U foobar.c This file is in CVS but is missing in your local checkout. T foobar.c This file has an unusual sticky CVS tag. A foobar.c You have done a cvs add for this file, but have not yet committed it. R foobar.c You have done a cvs rm for this file, but have not yet committed it. This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit. SEE ALSO
