This patch allows cvs diff to diff a date range on a branch. e.g.: cvs -d /home/ncvs diff -j RELENG_4:2/15/01 -j RELENG_4:3/06/01 I'm not quite sure what to do with it yet... I suppose submit it to the cvs maintainers since its in contrib. The patch is fairly straightforward since cvs already has support for branch date ranges (for cvs update). -Matt Index: contrib/cvs/src/diff.c =================================================================== RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/contrib/cvs/src/diff.c,v retrieving revision 1.14 diff -u -r1.14 diff.c --- contrib/cvs/src/diff.c 1999/12/11 12:50:08 1.14 +++ contrib/cvs/src/diff.c 2001/03/24 21:51:13 @@ -50,6 +50,7 @@ static char *diff_rev1, *diff_rev2; /* Command line dates, from -D option.
