I am wondering if there is a more efficient way I can use CVS. First, the
way I currently do it. Second, the way I wish I could do it.
When I use cvs I first create a directory under the cvs root directory for the
module that will contain the files I wish to track.
cvsroot = /usr/local/cvsroot
Module containing files. I create this directory
/usr/local/cvsroot/practice
I then go to my home directory
$ cd /home/brian
and I do
$ cvs -d /usr/local/cvsroot checkout practice
cvs creates the directory
/home/brian/practice
I then add a file into my practice directory.
$ cp ~/foo.pl /home/brian/practice/
Then I move into the practice area
$ cd ~/practice
and I add the foo.pl to my cvs
$ cvs add foo.pl
Then
$ cvs commit
I then enter an initial log entry for foo.pl
Here's where the question starts.
Say I already have the directory
/home/brian/practice
with say
foo.pl barney.pl wilma.pl bar.pl
and so on. Is there a way to drop these into CVS without doing a checkout?
