All,
I made a mistake and neglected to tag all of our repositories prior to
making a fairly large change. No big deal, I thought, I know the date of
the last commit and the date of the change, I can rtag the repository
now at a time between those two. However, rtag doesn't seem to do what I
thought it did.
I can check out a module from the date in question.
% cvs -d <repos> checkout -D "2006/8/20 22:00" adagio_itar
cvs checkout: Updating adagio_itar
U adagio_itar/Apps_adagio_itar.C
U adagio_itar/adagio_itar_sn.xml
cvs checkout: Updating adagio_itar/rtest
cvs checkout: Updating adagio_itar/rtest/null
U adagio_itar/rtest/null/.cvsignore
U adagio_itar/rtest/null/null.i
U adagio_itar/rtest/null/null.xml
When I rtag it cvs indicates that it's doing it:
% cvs -d <repos> rtag -D "2006/8/20 22:00" test_tag adagio_itar
cvs rtag: Tagging adagio_itar
cvs rtag: Tagging adagio_itar/rtest
cvs rtag: Tagging adagio_itar/rtest/null
but when I try to check out from the tag it fails:
% rm -rf adagio_itar
% cvs -d <repos> checkout -r test_tag adagio_itar
cvs [checkout aborted]: no such tag test_tag
Doing 'cvs log' on one of the files doesn't show the tag in the list of
symbolic names.
Of course I could simply go into the directory after the first checkout
and use 'cvs tag', but I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong. What am I
missing? (Also, section 4.6 clearly indicates that rtag is better. ;) )
