You could install Cygwin and get the benefits of the Unix commands. Once you do that, you'll need to get the source for CVS then apply the patch to that. > Finally, my question was how can I remove an edit on > a file ? > But now my question is how to use a .diff file ! I think the real question is, "Why are you trying to remove an existing edit?" The patch I mentioned is intended to be used to remove edits for users (or sandboxes when coupled with yet another patch) that no longer exist. > Can I use the file you gave me directly with the > cvs.exe I have ? No, patch files are against the source. You'll need to get the source code for CVS (hence, the open-sourceness of CVS), apply the patch, then build a new executable. > Is there something like the "patch" command under > windows NT ?
