Cvs notes

From raju

Keyword substitution

tag | automatic headers, keyword expansion

For Perl files, I use

    #! /usr/bin/env perl
    #=============================
    #   Last edited by:  $Author$
    #               on:  $Date$
    #         Revision:  $Revision$
    #         Filename:  $RCSfile$
    

The keywords are expanded after committing the file.

print status in a compact way

    % cat ~/bin/cvsqn
    cvs -qn update
    
    % chmod +x ~/bin/cvsqn
    
    % cvsqn
    M foo.pl
    

Mnemonic: "cvs queen"

tags | cvs equivalent of "svn status"
