create a branch from a specific time

[Diana Huang]

Hi All,

 

How can I create a branch from a trunck at a specific time? For example, I got a project which was tested until yesterday morning (August 7,2006 9:00am). After that the checking code has not been tested yet. I need to create a branch which doesn't include codes after August 7,2006 9:00am.

 

I am thinking to use commands like this:

 

# check out codes which donesn't include committed codes after the time into a working directory

 

cvs co -D "August 7,2006 9:00am" myproject 

 

# go to the working directory

 

cd myproject

 

# create a new branch root tag

 

cvs tag 2006_08_07_9AM

 

# create a branch based on the current checked out revisions in the working copy

 

cvs tag -b -r 2006_08_07_9AM New_Branch_Name

 

Am I right here?

 

Thanks, Diana
