CVS history: queries the submission records of all files in the directory in CVS.

We are used to viewing the change list of all files under a directory or even the entire project in eclipse SVN. Right-click the project and choose Project> Team> show history.

Recently, CVS is used. The CVS plug-in (eclipse CVS client 1.2.1) corresponding to eclipse does not support this application. I found other CVS clients (such as wincvs 2.0.2.4 ), similar functions are not found. (If you have any knowledge, please let us know. Thank you !)

 

You can only start with the command line, and then record the following.

 

Kick Start

 

First query the submission records of a file (this function can be implemented through most visual clients of CVs ):

Query the Historical submission records of A. file:

CVS history-ca a. File

 

Query the submission records of all files in a directory:

Query the submission records of all users in the xxx/XXX/xxx directory on April 9, June 1, 2014.

CVS history-ca-D 2014-06-01 xxx/XXX/xxx

 

If you do not know the composition rules of the XXX/xxx path, you can execute a global query statement to learn the composition rules of the path. For example, you can query the submission records of all users in the entire module on April 9, June 1, 2014:

CVS history-ca-D 2014-06-01

 

Okay!
