If you want the same file all the time, you could also try this: modules: part_one_file -d part_one path/to/part_one file
cvs co part_one_file and you should get U part_one/file Haven't tried it with the -d, but I have done the selected file checkout by specifying: module reposdirectory file ... in the modules file. It doesn't work with ampersand modules though. For example: moduleA path/to/whateverA fileA moduleB path/to/whateverB fileB ampermod &moduleA &moduleB If you checkout moduleA you'll get fileA only. If you checkout moduleB you'll get fileB only, but if you check out ampermod, you'll get all of the contents of whateverA and whateverB. Just ignores the file specifics for some reason.
