My question is how do you manage production branching over modules? Like if I want to roll out project1 with uses module1 module2 and module3 and when I roll this out I want to create a production branch. is there a way to also branch the included module? If not does anyone have a solution for

Hi James, I am not a cvs guru, but as a quick thought, I would suggest to look at the "modules" administration files. In two words, it allows you to create "pseudo module" (and few other things) that are made either from other module of specific files contained in those modules. When you checkout

I've had this same problem too about a month ago. It was a major pain to work out how to fix. Given what HEAD means, it should never make sense to run: cvs up -rHEAD and it should always make sense to use: "cvs up -A" instead. Given that, can the "up -r" option refuse to take "HEAD" as a tag? HE

I think this problem is endemic to the whole checkout-merge-commit model. Nor Eclipse nor any other tool will be able to handle this in CVS, although maybe it could send CVS users notifications of commits, and automatically run "cvs up" if it was guaranteed to generate no conflicts. There's a hook
