Understanding the output
$ cvs -q update -dA
P php/home.php
M php/wine.php
M php/doSearch.php
- cvs update -q stops it listing the name of every directory - important, because:
- You need to understand each line outputted - U or P means updated, M means modified, C means conflict.
- If you get a C for conflict, STOP and check with ls -la what has happened. CVS will rename your old file to .#filename.REV
