Hi Ulf,
: I constantly keep doing ``cvs update -PdR''. When I do this I get a bunch of
: new things that I don't get when I do a ``cvs co binutils'' and I have to
: fix my CVS local tree manually. Is the update command just broken or is
: this intentional? I think it worked before the major restructuring of the
: CVS tree a while ago.
One other solution to this cvs "feature" is to only run 'cvs update -d'
on the subdirectories create by the cvs checkout. This prevents any
new top level directories from cliuttering your disk, and it is a very
rare thing that a new top level directory is needed by the current
modules:
alias cvs-up 'cvs -q update -PdR *'
Cheers
Nick
