Hello
I am new to CVS so please bear with me.
I am trying to use CVS correctly to get the latest src
code from the repository. When I do a "update", it says
a lot of my files on my local file-system are modified. That
is true, however, I want to throw away those changes and get
the latest version.
The only way I could do this was to copy the output from
cvs update -R
into a text file, edit the file so it replaced each M with a rm
command and then run the text file as a script. Once all the files
had been deleted, running
cvs update -R
would get the previous modifed (now deleted) files.
How do I do this in one step using CVS?
John
