> cvs checkout cvstutorial |
If you used the mud example, you'll want to replace 'cvstutorial'
with 'src'. The last argument is the directory you saved to - or it could
be the module name. For now, we'll just ignore module names though, and
stick to directories. Lets verify that the checked in stuff is the same
as the checked out directory - I'd type;
> diff -r cvstutorial backup |
The code (text) files should be the same. Notice though, that CVS
only stores text-mode files.. so there won't be any binary files like
executables or object (.o) files. You can add these specifically with the
-k option , or the -i option, but these are left as exercises to the
reader.
You should probably now delete your old directory. If you leave it around, people may mistakenly make changes to IT instead of your actual version. If you're not ready for that leap of faith, just make a backup with tar, save it somewhere safe, and then erase the directory.
