If you start with
find . ! \( -name CVS -prune \)
you should omit CVS subdirectories and their contents.

Some of it is purely historical, required for compatibility with RCS (upon which CVS was built), and hence serves no useful purpose. The major rev number (to the left of the first decimal) is an example of this. But some kind of branching scheme (as opposed to simple one-dimensional increments) is required to support, well, branching. -- Mark Jackson - http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~mjackson Back in the Sixties we didn't have video games and the Internet.

How about "please don't care about the CVS revision numbers, use your own scheme with the use of tags?" Seriously - is it not true that if you check out, edit, and commit one of these imported files with the evil 4-ply revision number, that the new version is "1.2"? And - unless this has changed since 1.10 - is it not true that the original, imported file can be addressed either as 1.1.1.1 *or* 1.1? I quote from the "cvs log" output for such a file: revision 1.1 date: 2001/09/14 17:42:01; author: mjackson; state: Exp; branches: 1.1.1; Initial revision revision 1.1.1.1 date: 2001/09/14 17:42:01; author: mjackson; state: Exp; lines: +0 -0 initial import Same file, two numbers.
