Thanks, Donald, but I didn't mean to get an updated private version. I really meant to ask if this script is going to be published (e.g., in the contrib/ directory) and regularly updated. One thing I'd add to the script is read the checkoutlist file and avoid reporting the files specified there as

2002-11-21 Thread Karl-König Königsson
Hi all, I have a problem with my CVS repository that I don't understand: I have a branch called forv_ver1_020311-branch in a module named itp which has been in use for quite a while (as you can tell from the name). I have created a local sandbox of this branch with the following: cvs co -r

I would suggest that the forv_ver1_02X branch tag doesn't exist in the first two directories. Since it looks like you know the date when the tag was applied you can pull a workspace with the cvs co -D date command for those two directories and then apply the branch tag. Then you should be
