CVS_SOFTWARE_REVISIONS.INF
Software revisions using CVS:
----------------------------

o Information:  what revisions exist now?

  > cvs status -v [files...]
    --> the "-v" includes symbolic tags (i.e. revision names) in listing


o To create a software revsion RTC_0_01:

  > cvs tag RTC_0_01  [files ...]

o To retrieve a particular software revision:

  > cvs checkout -r RTC_0_01  moduleName
      - or -
  > cvs update -r RTC_0_01  [files ...]
      - or -
  > cvs update -D datestring  [files ...]

    --> sets "sticky tag", as shown in "cvs status"
               (reset by "cvs update -A")

o To check local copies for modifications relative to "current" version:

  > cvs status | grep 'File:' | grep -v 'Up-to-date'

  Note that "cvs diff" only reports differences between local file
  and the version which was checked out.  The "current" cvs version
  may have been committed from a different checked-out module.

  To check the local copy against the current version:
    > cvs diff -rHEAD  [filename]
