RE: How to track changes since a tag

[Tracy Brown]

There is a fairly simple way to do this:

cd workingdir/ (where you have a checked out version of the module)
cvs -Q diff -r SOME_PREVIOUS_TAG -r HEAD (or other branch/tag name) module |
nawk '/^Index/ { print $2 }' > file.out

or if you have lots of modules in a project/configuration:

cd workinddir/ (where you have a checked out version of the module)
for i in `ls`; do
cvs -Q diff -r SOME_PREVIOUS_TAG -r HEAD (or other branch/tag name) $i |
nawk '/^Index/ { print $2 }' > file.out
done


You'll get a lot of cvs output cruft directed toward standard error. By
redirecting this to a file, you'll get only the standard output.

Hope this helps.

Tracy.
