CVS 1.11.23 (Default branch)
CVS is a version control system, which allows you to keep old versions of files (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why changes occurred, etc., like RCS or SCCS. Unlike the simpler systems, CVS does not just operate on one file at a time or one directory at a time, but operates on hierarchical collections of directories consisting of version controlled files. CVS helps to manage releases and to control the concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. CVS allows triggers to enable/log/control various operations and works well over a wide area network. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
An "-n" option to revert the "-N" option was introduced. The command "cvs blame" as an alias to "cvs annotate" was added. A new "IgnoreUnknownConfigKeys" config option was added. Data loss on crashes of heavily loaded systems is now avoided. Locking during import was corrected. A server hang with enabled compression was fixed. Applying diffs when checking out very old revisions was sped up significantly. Several other improvements and bugfixes were made.Image

CVS-DEBC(1)						      General Commands Manual						       CVS-DEBC(1)

NAME

       cvs-debrelease - upload a cvs-buildpackage/cvs-debuild generated package

SYNOPSIS

       cvs-debrelease [cvs-debrelease options] [--dopts [dupload/dput options]]

DESCRIPTION

       cvs-debrelease  is run from the CVS working directory after cvs-buildpackage or cvs-debuild.  It uses the cvs-buildpackage system to locate
       the .changes file generated in that run.  It then uploads the package using debrelease(1), which in turn  calls	either	dupload  or  dput.
       Note  that  the	--dopts  option  must  be specified to distinguish the cvs-debrelease options from the dupload or dput options.  Also, the
       devscripts configuration files will be read, as described in the debrelease(1) manpage.

       Note that unlike cvs-buildpackage, the only way to specify the source package name is with the -P option; you cannot simply have it as  the
       last command-line parameter.

OPTIONS

       All  current  cvs-buildpackage options are silently accepted; however, only the ones listed below have any effect.  For more details on all
       of them, see the cvs-buildpackage(1) manpage.  All debrelease options (as listed below) are also accepted.

       --dupload, --dput
	      This specifies which uploader program to use; the default is dupload.

       -adebian-architecture, -tGNU-system-type
	      See dpkg-architecture(1) for a description of these options.  They affect the search for the .changes file.  They  are  provided	to
	      mimic the behaviour of dpkg-buildpackage when determining the name of the .changes file.

       -Mmodule
	      The name of the CVS module.

       -Ppackage
	      The name of the package.

       -Vversion
	      The version number of the package.

       -Ttag  The CVS tag to use for exporting sources.

       -Rroot directory
	      Root of the original sources archive.

       -Wwork directory
	      The full path name for the cvs-buildpackage working directory.

       -xprefix
	      This option provides the CVS default module prefix.

       --no-conf, --noconf
	      Do not read any configuration files.  This can only be used as the first option given on the command-line.

       --help, --version
	      Show help message and version information respectively.
