I have been building a cvs structure for a bunch of code and have
a couple questions I have not been able to find answers to in the
archives/documentation. When you run ident on many FreeBSD modules
you see the identifier "FreeBSD" used frequently. It appears that
cvs is properly updating the information in those entries, but I
don't see how cvs is configured to make that happen. FreeBSD is not
one of the cvs recognized keywords. I would like to use a unique
keyword for my stuff. ident finds it fine in the files, but cvs does
not update the version information. I suspect that somehow I need
to tell cvs about the keyword.
See this article for details of the FreeBSD CVS setup:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/cvs-freebsd/
Part of this explains how our `cfg_local.pm' works and you can use a
similar trick for any custom $FreeBSD$-like keyword you want.
Thanks. I did figure it out. For anyone else who wants the simple way:
To have XXX and Id work as a keywords edit the config file in CVSROOT
in the repository. Add the following two lines:
tag=XXX=CVSHeader
tagexpand=iXXX,Id
Only the XXX and Id keywords will then expand.
