a rough structure
=======================================================================
• The comment that was entered when the user committed the change.
(For a description of state, and why you will almost always see
Exp;
, see the
Cederqvist reference in Section 8.6.)
Do you want less output from
cvs log
? You can restrict the information
to cover only a certain user's changes (
-w
), to a certain range of revisions (
-r
),
and/or between certain dates (
-d
).
For example,
cvs -walbing -r1.2:1.4 -d05-Sep03 -d28-Sep-03 Account.java
will list only changes committed by user
albing
, only in the revision range of
1.2 through 1.4, and only between the dates of 05 and 28 September of 2003.
