Don't know if there's a better way but you could write a script to do it,
something like:
for i in `cvs -q update . | grep '^U' | awk '{print $2}'`
do
cvs commit $i
done

Subject: Re: How to force CVS to invoke editor (log messages) for
_every_ file from _few_ being commited at once?
Hello,
This is the simple example to define more precisely my question. For example
i do the following:
1. $ cvs co myproj
2. $ cd myproj
3. Then I begin working hard and edit onefile.c then secondfile.c then
onefile.h then Makefile and so on...
4. I want to commit all locally modified files at once with the command
$ cvs ci
instead of recalling what files i have edited and committing like
this:
$ cvs ci onefile.c
$ cvs ci secondfile.c
...
cvs ci works fine, using all modified files as implied arguments and
invoking vi to compose the log message.
BUT VI IS INVOKED ONLY ONCE AND THIS LOG MESSAGE IS SHARED BETWEEN ALL
MODIFIED FILES! -
but i want to have DIFFERENT log messages for different files - and this is
the problem.
(Before cvs i was using rcs for a couple of years. And rcs always asks you
about reusing previous log message or
writing the new one for _every_ file that is being checked in -- so you
don't need to keep in mind what files have been modified.
You can just check out - edit - check in).
So, my question is: How can i tell cvs to invoke vi for every file, that are
committed together, instead of invoking the editor once,
with the header, saying that you have modified file1, file2, file3 ...
May be there are some scripts available to use in commitinfo of loginfo? Or
am i using cvs in the wrong way (then what is the philosophy of "right
committing") ?
Thank you and looking forward for your answer,
Alexei Lioubimov
