cvs checkout in custom directory

cvs co -d dir_name company/project

 

Recursively add files to cvs

Let say we have the following directory structure

• project
  • one
  • two

1. add the root directory (project) 
   

   cvs add project 

2. cvs ci project
3. cd project
4. find all directories
   

   find . -type d -print | grep -v CVS | xargs cvs add

5. cvs ci
6. find all files other than CVS and .
   

   find . -type f -print | grep -v CVS | grep "^\.\/" |xargs cvs add

7. cvs ci

 

remote cvs checkout

cvs -d :pserver:username@server:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout project

 

cvs rollback

cvs up -j 1.43 -j 1.42 classes/someClass.php

 

CVS diff different versions of the file

cvs diff -u -r 1.42 -r 1.43 classes/someClass.php
