what about the deleted files? should we teach cvsps how to diff the old revision fetched with cvs up -p against /dev/null to make a completely coherent patch?
this is with 2.4
Directing PatchSet 2742 to file ../patches-2.4//2742.patch cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd' cvs [update aborted]: no such directory `drivers/usb/hcd'
I also wonder if cvsps is so accurate also w/o the --bkcvs option (i.e. w/o atomic commits from bk). are the dates guaranteed to be the same for all files w/ a normal cvs tree?
what about the -f option? why can't I use it at the same time with -r? Can I use multiple -f at the same time? That is getting very cool and so useful.
Would also be nice to export the API of the cvsps internals to python (i.e. to allow to efficiently parse the cvsps metadata files in .cvsps from scripts that will give the flexibility of parsing the data as you want or to quickly write a gui fronthand). This is low prio though, having -f working together with -r and all the other options is much more interesting at this point IMHO. Being able to specify a directory as a file would also be very useful.
thanks!
