RE: cvs export dude

[Martinez Pla, Jose Antonio]

Yes, this works right, but I only want to know if cvs export has the chance
to do it by itself.

I´ll make that.

Thank you very much.

Bye.

Have you tried this?

    cd /tmp
    cvs -d :pserver:<user>@<host>:<port><repository> \
      export -r <revision_tag> <module>

The -d <dir> pathname must be a relative sub-directory, so if you need
it in /tmp, just cd to that directory first.
