diff -N includes new files, and cvs diff takes arguments to pass to diff, as well as a list of filenames to limit its diff to. With the help of cvsutils, even read-only access can fake adding files to CVS. My typical usage is: $ cat ~/.cvsrc cvs -qz4 update -Pd diff -uN $ cvsdo add src/randseed.[hc] ... $ cvs diff src/sort.c src/checksum.h src/randseed.[hc] ... -- Eric Blake _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
