You are right, it would be handy. I thought -I! would do the trick, but it does not. I would vote for such a change. ;) In the meantime, there is a work-around for this problem without a need to manually move or delete files: Use cvsu --ignore (cf. http://linux.die.net/man/1/cvspurge) from the cvsutils (http://www.red-bean.com/cvsutils/). This command with this option does exactly what you want to achieve. HTH, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
