Re: Best way to find files added/changed/removed between tags

[Abhinandan Jain]

I had been using rdiff - except for the performance problem I mentioned
in my post. I've ended up using two runs of "cvs rls" for each of the
tags, and comparing the version numbers for each of the files to
determine is they have changed, been added or removed. Seems to work
fine.
