I am kinda new to cvs. So I may be understating the problem. I think that you could just checkout the modules file and add the path to the end of each alias. I tried the "&" trick and it seems that it doesn't understand aliases. (aliases keep the full path name).
with aliases, the modules file looks like alias_name_1 -a path/to/alias/name/one alias_name_2 -a path/to/alias/name/two common_stuff -a path/to/common/stuff group_stuff -a path/to/group/stuff path/to/common/stuff The last line is the interesting one. Without aliases, the -a might work. Keep in mind that I am kinda new and so may be way off. - sandeep --- Thomas Frasher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I'm trying to change the repository that we are > using here. > There are several projects that use some of the same > files, headers and .cpp > files. > > Ideally I would like the checkout to get the files > automatically, whether > they are in a different repository (i.e. a different > module) or whether they > are local.
