aliases

[Jim Sadlek]

I set up an alias for a module.  I want to check out a submodule using the alias. co ignores the alias when I checkout submodules using the alias as a prefix.  It checks out the entire alias, including the deep subdir that I'm trying to exclude.

 

e.g.

modules file:

-----------------------------

# created mymodule to first-dir

mymodule first-dir

 

# aliased amod to first-dir and exclude a deep subdir

amod -a !first-dir/sdir/some_other_dir first-dir

-----------------------------

 

%cvs co -d mysdir amod/sdir
