as far as I understand logics of cvs update, it won't rub out your local changes - all you can get with cvs update are conflicts. Why not do cvs -n update -d, and then cvs update -d, or even cvs update -d -I your/changed/file1 -I another/changed/file, and then you can diff through this small (I suppose (: ) set of files -- Artem 'Zazoobr' Ignatjev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
