Hi,
First of all thank you for your work, CVSNT is a must have software
available on Linux/Windows.
When I tried to get a list of all changed files between 2 symbolic tags
with the following command:
cvs diff -q -R -N -r HCVW_R_4_5_1_0 -r HCVW_R_4_6_5_0
It should provide only the list of changed files, but what I got is:
Usage: cvs diff [-lNR] [rcsdiff-options]
[[-r rev1 | -D date1] [-r rev2 | -D date2]] [files...]
-l Local directory only, not recursive
-R Process directories recursively.
-D d1 Diff revision for date against working file.
-D d2 Diff rev1/date1 against date2.
-N include diffs for added and removed files.
-r rev1 Diff revision for rev1 against working file.
-r rev2 Diff rev1/date1 against rev2.
--ifdef=arg Output diffs in ifdef format.
(consult the documentation for your diff program for rcsdiff-options.
The most popular is -c for context diffs but there are many more).
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)
With other options it works, but it will produce also the changes from
files:
cvs diff -c -R -N -r HCVW_R_4_5_1_0 -r HCVW_R_4_6_5_0
cvs diff -u -R -N -r HCVW_R_4_5_1_0 -r HCVW_R_4_6_5_0
cvs diff -d -R -N -r HCVW_R_4_5_1_0 -r HCVW_R_4_6_5_0
In the manual of rcsdiff it is wrotten: "The option -q suppresses
diagnostic output."
Cheers,
Liviu
