Re: changing dates in CVS

[Norberto Meijome]

Hi there,
I haven't RTFM on this, so there may be an option that does precisely that.

But you can always create a script around that gets the date from the 
cvs log:

Revision : 1.5
Date : 2002/6/17 6:54:11
Author : 'numard'
State : 'Exp'
Lines : +2 -2

, and then use any tool in your OS to reset the file time stamp to that. 
Don't forget CVS keeps date & time in UTC.

cheers,
Beto

If you were supposed to understand it, we wouldn't call it 'code'.
