RE: CVS : extracting releases without the 'CVS related stuffs'

[Walter, Jan]

I think you want the command 'cvs export' for the given tag. This does not
give you the CVS directories in the source tree. Stuff like $Id$ and $Log$
tags will remain in the sources though - it's not clear if this is what
you're referring too.

Other than that, I use 'cvs co foo' followed by a 'find foo -type d -name
CVS -exec rm -rf {} ;' :-)

Cheers,

Jan
