Re: How do you work out "automatically" the set of branches and the latest version of each branch within a CVS project ?

[Nils9]

Sometimes it does happen that there are individual files branched/tagged,
and you have to descend into Attic as well (where branches certainly are).
I have a script, it gets a recursive dirlist from given path and performs
and rcs command "rlog" per each file in dir and makes uniq of all the output.

But the CVSweb is a solution, though it is not obvious how it does that
just by glimpsing into the script.
