If you do the traditional merge checkout that CVS suggests when there are conflicts (e.g., ``cvs co -j BINUTILS-2_9_1 -j BINUTILS-2_10 binutils'') and then commit the results, that will take care of removing the obsolete files. -Larry Jones Monopoly is more fun when you make your own Chance cards. -- Calvin
Import with removed files
I'm trying to import GNU binutils 2.10 in place of 2.9.1, and a number
of files have either been removed or moved, and so there are a lot of
files which are not in the current import which still get checked out.
Of course I can checkout with -j BINUTILS-2_10, but I'd prefer to only
have to be able to do a checkout.
Is there a relatively easy way to find these files and remove them?
I figure at least I could run something like:
cvs log -h -rBINUTILS-2_10 |grep 'Working file:'|awk '{print $3}'
To get a list of current files, sort this, diff it with the output of
'find', and use that list of files as args to 'cvs remove'. But before
I do this, I want to know if there is a better way?
I notice that the 'cvs log' command above spits out a list of files on
stderr *without* the requested tag/revision:
cvs server: warning: no revision `BINUTILS-2_10' in `/cvsroot/lnxs/lnxs/usr.bin/
binutils/.cvsignore,v'
cvs server: warning: no revision `BINUTILS-2_10' in `/cvsroot/lnxs/lnxs/usr.bin/
binutils/ChangeLog,v'
I suppose I could use this to get the list of files to remove...
Well, is going through and removing them even the right thing to do?
