Hi;

How do I remove items from my sandbox that are the results of a build (successful or not) when they are scattered all over the place?

 I did not see a clear answer from

http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/
http://ximbiot.com/cvs/wiki/index.php?title=CVS_FAQ
http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.21/cvs.html
from cvs man pages
from Essential CVS (O'Reilly) -- although it looks like "cvs update -C <directory, module, etc>" might be an answer but I don't see this option CLEARLY documented.

cvs update --help
-C      Overwrite locally modified files with clean repository copies.

Does this mean that all files that are not in the repository are removed from the sandbox?

Thanks,
Ken
