import output

CVS---Concurrent Versions System. Node: import output

import keeps you informed of its progress by printing a line for each file, preceded by one character indicating the status of the file:

`U file`	The file already exists in the repository and has not been locally modified; a new revision has been created (if necessary).
`N file`	The file is a new file which has been added to the repository.
`C file`	The file already exists in the repository but has been locally modified; you will have to merge the changes.
`I file`	The file is being ignored (see cvsignore).
`L file`	The file is a symbolic link; `cvs import` ignores symbolic links. People periodically suggest that this behavior should be changed, but if there is a consensus on what it should be changed to, it doesn't seem to be apparent. (Various options in the ``modules`' file can be used to recreate symbolic links on checkout, update, etc.; see modules.)
