| <h3>Examples</h3> |
| <pre> <cvs cvsRoot=":pserver:anoncvs@jakarta.apache.org:/home/cvspublic" |
| package="jakarta-tools" |
| dest="${ws.dir}" |
| /></pre> |
| <p>checks out the package/module "jakarta-tools" from the CVS |
| repository pointed to by the cvsRoot attribute, and stores the files in "${ws.dir}".</p> |
| <pre> <cvs dest="${ws.dir}" command="update"/></pre> |
| <p>updates the package/module that has previously been checked out into |
| "${ws.dir}".</p> |
| <pre> <cvs command="-q diff -u -N" output="patch.txt"/></pre> |
| <p>silently (-q) creates a file called patch.txt which contains a unified (-u) diff which includes new files added via "cvs add" (-N) and can be used as input to patch.</p> |
| <pre> <cvs command="update -A -d"/></pre> |
| <p>Updates from the head of repository ignoring sticky bits (-A) and creating any new directories as necessary (-d).</p> |
| <p>Note: the text of the command is passed to cvs "as-is" so any cvs options should appear |
| before the command, and any command options should appear after the command as in the diff example |
| above. See <a href="http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/index.html" target="_top">the cvs manual</a> for details, |
| specifically the <a href="http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_16.html" target="_top">Guide to CVS commands</a></p> |
