Equivalent to "cvs log -rBASE::HEAD"?

[Slawomir Nowaczyk]

Hello,

I would like to see cvs log messages for all the files and revisions
which will be updated by next "cvs update" command -- to get an idea
as to what has been changed.

Ideally, I would like to do "cvs log -rBASE::HEAD"

But log "-r" switch only accepts revisions, not tags (according to the
documentation). Somehow, the "HEAD" is working, but "BASE" is not (I
get "no revision `BASE' in ..." error message).

I can imagine checking each file's currently checked out revision
number and calling "cvs log" once per file... but is there an easier
solution?

Thanks in advice for any advices.
