Hi Todd and Sriranjani,

You deleted from CVS or local server ?
              If u deleted from both server then i have to see,
                      else if u deleted from either local server or CVS server then do "cvs -q up -Pd <filename>"
                              else do   " cvs -q up -Pd -r  <Previous_rev_no> <filename>" .

Check bellow link,

Please keep these on the list.

From cvs --help-commands
annotate Show last revision where each line was modified
In my opinion it should really read:
annotate Show the revision where each line currently in the file came to be
as it is now, in the repository.

I have no idea what SCCS command you are speaking of, or what exactly it did,
even though I used SCCS for ~2 years.



and there is no 'history' command for SCCS or even CSSC:
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/toc.htm
http://cssc.sourceforge.net/documentation.shtml
so what are you talking about? (there is no gentle way of asking that.)

It might help us to know Why you want to see deleted lines, as we could
probably come up with a more useful command, or a better way to use annotate.

Summary, for most of us seeing when a line that currently exists was put into a
file is useful (get it from annotate), for most of us knowing how MANY lines
were deleted in a file in a particular revision is useful (get it from log), for
most of us knowing how a SET of lines changed between two revisions is useful
(get it from diff).
Because no one has explained why seeing a file with all the deleted lines for
the whole history of a file is useful:
A) we don't have a command to spit it out.
B) we are having trouble coming up with a useful set of commands for you.
C) annotate don't do that.
