Check out the documentation for modules in the Cederqvist manual.  It comes with
each CVS distribution and is named something like "cvs-1.10/doc/cvs.ps".  You
can also get it online from:

     http://www.loria.fr/~molli/cvs-index.html

along with a CVS FAQ.

Subject:  Linking CVS repositories to other CVS repositories




I need to know the best way to create links in CVS repositories.

Specifically, can I construct links such that a module can be linked within
another module and be checked out as a subdirectory.

Here is an example of my situation. Say I have two modules, A and B. Both
modules reside in their own seperate repositories in the CVSROOT. I have
another module C containing a subdirectory C'. Within C' is source code that
I wish to share amongst A and B. Can I simply create a link to C' in A and B
and expect C' to be checked out as a subdirectory of A or B?

If so, where do I create the link? Do I checkout A, and create a link to
$CVSROOT/C/C' then add and commit the link? Will this work? Am I off my nut
for wanting to do this?

Thanks in advance!
