Amended report: the range feature is document online however the –help command does not indicate multiple –j switches are allowable.

Subject: Undocumented Switch Configuration

 

I use the following command form to merge a range of changes from one branch to another. Is this range behavior documented? The cvs –help for update makes no mention of multiple –j switches nor does checkout.

 

cvs update –j source_branch_bookmark –j source_branch module

 

I  run this standing in the target branch so the –r is implicit while the –j switches specify the range from the “source” branch.

 

TIA
