+
+Tue Apr 7 15:55:25 1992 Brian Berliner (berliner at sun.com)
+
+ * Changes between CVS 1.3 Beta-3 and official CVS 1.3!
+
+ * A new shell script is provided, "./cvsinit", which can be run at
+ install time to help setup your $CVSROOT area. This can greatly
+ ease your entry into CVS usage.
+
+ * The INSTALL file has been updated to include the machines on
+ which CVS has compiled successfully. I think CVS 1.3 is finally
+ portable. Thanks to all the Beta testers!
+
+ * Support for the "editinfo" file was contributed. This file
+ (located in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT) can be used to specify a special
+ "editor" to run on a per-directory basis within the repository,
+ instead of the usual user's editor. As such, it can verify that
+ the log message entered by the user is of the appropriate form
+ (contains a bugid and test validation, for example).
+
+ * The manual pages cvs(1) and cvs(5) have been updated.
+
+ * The "mkmodules" command now informs you when your modules file
+ has duplicate entries.
+
+ * The "add" command now preserves any per-directory sticky tag when
+ you add a new directory to your checked-out sources.
+
+ * The "admin" command is now a fully recursive interface to the
+ "rcs" program which operates on your checked-out sources. It no
+ longer requires you to specify the full path to the RCS file.
+
+ * The per-file sticky tags can now be effectively removed with
+ "cvs update -A file", even if you had checked out the whole
+ directory with a per-directory sticky tag. This allows a great
+ deal of flexibility in managing the revisions that your checked-out
+ sources are based upon (both per-directory and per-file sticky
+ tags).
+
+ * The "cvs -n commit" command now works, to show which files are
+ out-of-date and will cause the real commit to fail, or which files
+ will fail any pre-commit checks. Also, the "cvs -n import ..."
+ command will now show you what it would've done without actually
+ doing it.
+
+ * Doing "cvs commit modules" to checkin the modules file will no
+ properly run the "mkmodules" program (assuming you have setup your
+ $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/modules file to do so).
+
+ * The -t option in the modules file (which specifies a program to
+ run when you do a "cvs rtag" operation on a module) now gets the
+ symbolic tag as the second argument when invoked.
+
+ * When the source repository is locked by another user, that user's
+ login name will be displayed as the holder of the lock.
+
+ * Doing "cvs checkout module/file.c" now works even if
+ module/file.c is in the Attic (has been removed from main-line
+ development).
+
+ * Doing "cvs commit */Makefile" now works as one would expect.
+ Rather than trying to commit everything recursively, it will now
+ commit just the files specified.
+
+ * The "cvs remove" command is now fully recursive. To schedule a
+ file for removal, all you have to do is "rm file" and "cvs rm".
+ With no arguments, "cvs rm" will schedule all files that have been
+ physically removed for removal from the source repository at the
+ next "cvs commit".
+
+ * The "cvs tag" command now prints "T file" for each file that was
+ tagged by this invocation and "D file" for each file that had the
+ tag removed (as with "cvs tag -d").
+
+ * The -a option has been added to "cvs rtag" to force it to clean
+ up any old, matching tags for files that have been removed (in the
+ Attic) that may not have been touched by this tag operation. This
+ can help keep a consistent view with your tag, even if you re-use
+ it frequently.
+

+
+ * Changes between CVS 1.3 Beta-2 and CVS 1.3 Beta-3
+
+ * Many portability fixes, thanks to all the Beta testers! With any
+ luck, this Beta release will compile correctly on most anything.
+ Hey, what are we without our dreams.
+
+ * CVS finally has support for doing isolated development on a
+ branch off the current (or previous!) revisions. This is also
+ extremely nice for generating patches for previously released
+ software while development is progressing on the next release.
+ Here's an example of creating a branch to fix a patch with the 2.0
+ version of the "foo" module, even though we are already well into
+ the 3.0 release. Do:
+
+ % cvs rtag -b -rFOO_2_0 FOO_2_0_Patch foo
+ % cvs checkout -rFOO_2_0_Patch foo
+ % cd foo
+ [[ hack away ]]
+ % cvs commit
+
+ A physical branch will be created in the RCS file only when you
+ actually commit the change. As such, forking development at some
+ random point in time is extremely light-weight -- requiring just a
+ symbolic tag in each file until a commit is done. To fork
+ development at the currently checked out sources, do:
+
+ % cvs tag -b Personal_Hack
+ % cvs update -rPersonal_Hack
+ [[ hack away ]]
+ % cvs commit
+
+ Now, if you decide you want the changes made in the Personal_Hack
+ branch to be merged in with other changes made in the main-line
+ development, you could do:
+
+ % cvs commit # to make Personal_Hack complete
+ % cvs update -A # to update sources to main-line
+ % cvs update -jPersonal_Hack # to merge Personal_Hack
+
+ to update your checked-out sources, or:
+
+ % cvs checkout -jPersonal_Hack module
+
+ to checkout a fresh copy.
+
+ To support this notion of forked development, CVS reserves
+ all even-numbered branches for its own use. In addition, CVS
+ reserves the ".0" and ".1" branches. So, if you intend to do your
+ own branches by hand with RCS, you should use odd-numbered branches
+ starting with ".3", as in "1.1.3", "1.1.5", 1.2.9", ....
+
+ * The "cvs commit" command now supports a fully functional -r
+ option, allowing you to commit your changes to a specific numeric
+ revision or symbolic tag with full consistency checks. Numeric
+ tags are useful for bringing your sources all up to some revision
+ level:
+
+ % cvs commit -r2.0
+
+ For symbolic tags, you can only commit to a tag that references a
+ branch in the RCS file. One created by "cvs rtag -b" or from
+ "cvs tag -b" is appropriate (see below).
+
+ * Roland Pesch <pesch@cygnus.com> and K. Richard Pixley
+ <rich@cygnus.com> were kind enough to contribute two new manual
+ pages for CVS: cvs(1) and cvs(5). Most of the new CVS 1.3 features
+ are now documented, with the exception of the new branch support
+ added to commit/rtag/tag/checkout/update.
+
+ * The -j options of checkout/update have been added. The "cvs join"
+ command has been removed.
+
+ With one -j option, CVS will merge the changes made between the
+ resulting revision and the revision that it is based on (e.g., if
+ the tag refers to a branch, CVS will merge all changes made in
+ that branch into your working file).
+
+ With two -j options, CVS will merge in the changes between the two
+ respective revisions. This can be used to "remove" a certain delta
+ from your working file. E.g., If the file foo.c is based on
+ revision 1.6 and I want to remove the changes made between 1.3 and
+ 1.5, I might do:
+
+ % cvs update -j1.5 -j1.3 foo.c # note the order...
+
+ In addition, each -j option can contain on optional date
+ specification which, when used with branches, can limit the chosen
+ revision to one within a specific date. An optional date is
+ specified by adding a colon (:) to the tag, as in:
+
+ -jSymbolic_Tag:Date_Specifier
+
+ An example might be what "cvs import" tells you to do when you have
+ just imported sources that have conflicts with local changes:
+
+ % cvs checkout -jTAG:yesterday -jTAG module
+
+ which tells CVS to merge in the changes made to the branch
+ specified by TAG in the last 24 hours. If this is not what is
+ intended, substitute "yesterday" for whatever format of date that
+ is appropriate, like:
+
+ % cvs checkout -jTAG:'1 week ago' -jTAG module
+
+ * "cvs diff" now supports the special tags "BASE" and "HEAD". So,
+ the command:
+
+ % cvs diff -u -rBASE -rHEAD
+
+ will effectively show the changes made by others (in unidiff
+ format) that will be merged into your working sources with your
+ next "cvs update" command. "-rBASE" resolves to the revision that
+ your working file is based on. "-rHEAD" resolves to the current
+ head of the branch or trunk that you are working on.
+
+ * The -P option of "cvs checkout" now means to Prune empty
+ directories, as with "update". The default is to not remove empty
+ directories. However, if you do "checkout" with any -r options, -P
+ will be implied. I.e., checking out with a tag will cause empty
+ directories to be pruned automatically.
+
+ * The new file INSTALL describes how to install CVS, including
+ detailed descriptions of interfaces to "configure".
+
+ * The example loginfo file in examples/loginfo has been updated to
+ use the perl script included in contrib/log.pl. The nice thing
+ about this log program is that it records the revision numbers of
+ your change in the log message.
+
+ Example files for commitinfo and rcsinfo are now included in the
+ examples directory.
+
+ * All "#if defined(__STDC__) && __STDC__ == 1" lines have been
+ changed to be "#if __STDC__" to fix some problems with the former.
+
+ * The lib/regex.[ch] files have been updated to the 1.3 release of
+ the GNU regex package.
+
+ * The ndbm emulation routines included with CVS 1.3 Beta-2 in the
+ src/ndbm.[ch] files has been moved into the src/myndbm.[ch] files
+ to avoid any conflict with the system <ndbm.h> header file. If
+ you had a previous CVS 1.3 Beta release, you will want to "cvs
+ remove ndbm.[ch]" form your copy of CVS as well.
+
+ * "cvs add" and "cvs remove" are a bit more verbose, telling you
+ what to do to add/remove your file permanently.
+
+ * We no longer mess with /dev/tty in "commit" and "add".
+
+ * More things are quiet with the -Q option set.
+
+ * New src/config.h option: If CVS_BADROOT is set, CVS will not
+ allow people really logged in as "root" to commit changes.
+
+ * "cvs diff" exits with a status of 0 if there were no diffs, 1 if
+ there were diffs, and 2 if there were errors.
+
+ * "cvs -n diff" is now supported so that you can still run diffs
+ even while in the middle of committing files.
+
+ * Handling of the CVS/Entries file is now much more robust.
+
+ * The default file ignore list now includes "*.so".
+
+ * "cvs import" did not expand '@' in the log message correctly. It
+ does now. Also, import now uses the ignore file facility
+ correctly.
+
+ Import will now tell you whether there were conflicts that need to
+ be resolved, and how to resolve them.
+
+ * "cvs log" has been changed so that you can "log" things that are
+ not a part of the current release (in the Attic).
+
+ * If you don't change the editor message on commit, CVS now prompts
+ you with the choice:
+
+ !)reuse this message unchanged for remaining dirs
+
+ which allows you to tell CVS that you have no intention of changing
+ the log message for the remainder of the commit.
+
+ * It is no longer necessary to have CVSROOT set if you are using
+ the -H option to get Usage information on the commands.
+
+ * Command argument changes:
+ checkout: -P handling changed as described above.
+ New -j option (up to 2 can be specified)
+ for doing rcsmerge kind of things on
+ checkout.
+ commit: -r option now supports committing to a
+ numeric or symbolic tags, with some
+ restrictions. Full consistency checks will
+ be done.
+ Added "-f logfile" option, which tells
+ commit to glean the log message from the
+ specified file, rather than invoking the
+ editor.
+ rtag: Added -b option to create a branch tag,
+ useful for creating a patch for a previous
+ release, or for forking development.
+ tag: Added -b option to create a branch tag,
+ useful for creating a patch for a previous
+ release, or for forking development.
+ update: New -j option (up to 2 can be specified)
+ for doing rcsmerge kind of things on
+ update.
+
+Thu Jan 9 10:51:35 MST 1992 Jeff Polk (polk at BSDI.COM)
+
+ * Changes between CVS 1.3 Beta-1 and CVS 1.3 Beta-2
+
+ * Thanks to K. Richard Pixley at Cygnus we now have function
+ prototypes in all the files
+
+ * Some small changes to configure for portability. There have
+ been other portability problems submitted that have not been fixed
+ (Brian will be working on those). Additionally all __STDC__
+ tests have been modified to check __STDC__ against the constant 1
+ (this is what the Second edition of K&R says must be true).
+
+ * Lots of additional error checking for forked processes (run_exec)
+ (thanks again to K. Richard Pixley)
+
+ * Lots of miscellaneous bug fixes - including but certainly not
+ limited to:
+ various commit core dumps
+ various update core dumps
+ bogus results from status with numeric sticky tags
+ commitprog used freed memory
+ Entries file corruption caused by No_Difference
+ commit to revision broken (now works if branch exists)
+ ignore file processing broken for * and !
+ ignore processing didn't handle memory reasonably
+ miscellaneous bugs in the recursion processor
+ file descriptor leak in ParseInfo
+ CVSROOT.adm->CVSROOT rename bug
+ lots of lint fixes
+
+ * Reformatted all the code in src (with GNU indent) and then
+ went back and fixed prototypes, etc since indent gets confused. The
+ rationale is that it is better to do it sooner than later and now
+ everything is consistent and will hopefully stay that way.
+ The basic options to indent were: "-bad -bbb -bap -cdb -d0 -bl -bli0
+ -nce -pcs -cs -cli4 -di1 -nbc -psl -lp -i4 -ip4 -c41" and then
+ miscellaneous formatting fixes were applied. Note also that the
+ "-nfc1" or "-nfca" may be appropriate in files where comments have
+ been carefully formatted (e.g, modules.c).
+
+Sat Dec 14 20:35:22 1991 Brian Berliner (berliner at sun.com)
+
+ * Changes between CVS 1.2 and CVS 1.3 Beta are described here.
+
+ * Lots of portability work. CVS now uses the GNU "configure"
+ script to dynamically determine the features provided by your
+ system. It probably is not foolproof, but it is better than
+ nothing. Please let me know of any portability problems. Some
+ file names were changed to fit within 14-characters.
+
+ * CVS has a new RCS parser that is much more flexible and
+ extensible. It should read all known RCS ",v" format files.
+
+ * Most of the commands now are fully recursive, rather than just
+ operating on the current directory alone. This includes "commit",
+ which makes it real easy to do an "atomic" commit of all the
+ changes made to a CVS hierarchy of sources. Most of the commands
+ also correctly handle file names that are in directories other than
+ ".", including absolute path names. Commands now accept the "-R"
+ option to force recursion on (though it is always the default now)
+ and the "-l" option to force recursion off, doing just "." and not
+ any sub-directories.
+
+ * CVS supports many of the features provided with the RCS 5.x
+ distribution - including the new "-k" keyword expansion options. I
+ recommend using RCS 5.x (5.6 is the current official RCS version)
+ and GNU diff 1.15 (or later) distributions with CVS.
+
+ * Checking out files with symbolic tags/dates is now "sticky", in
+ that CVS remembers the tag/date used for each file (and directory)
+ and will use that tag/date automatically on the next "update" call.
+ This stickyness also holds for files checked out with the the new
+ RCS 5.x "-k" options.
+
+ * The "cvs diff" command now recognizes all of the rcsdiff 5.x
+ options. Unidiff format is available by installing the GNU
+ diff 1.15 distribution.
+
+ * The old "CVS.adm" directories created on checkout are now called
+ "CVS" directories, to look more like "RCS" and "SCCS". Old CVS.adm
+ directories are automagically converted to CVS directories. The
+ old "CVSROOT.adm" directory within the source repository is
+ automagically changed into a "CVSROOT" directory as well.
+
+ * Symbolic links in the source repository are fully supported ONLY
+ if you use RCS 5.6 or later and (of course) your system supports
+ symlinks.
+
+ * A history database has been contributed which maintains the
+ history of certain CVS operations, as well as providing a wide array
+ of querying options.
+
+ * The "cvs" program has a "-n" option which can be used with the
+ "update" command to show what would be updated without actually
+ doing the update, like: "cvs -n update". All usage statements
+ have been cleaned up and made more verbose.
+
+ * The module database parsing has been rewritten. The new format
+ is compatible with the old format, but with much more
+ functionality. It allows modules to be created that grab pieces or
+ whole directories from various different parts of your source
+ repository. Module-relative specifications are also correctly
+ recognized now, like "cvs checkout module/file.c".
+
+ * A configurable template can be specified such that on a "commit",
+ certain directories can supply a template that the user must fill
+ before completing the commit operation.
+
+ * A configurable pre-commit checking program can be specified which
+ will run to verify that a "commit" can happen. This feature can be
+ used to restrict certain users from changing certain pieces of the
+ source repository, or denying commits to the entire source
+ repository.
+
+ * The new "cvs export" command is much like "checkout", but
+ establishes defaults suitable for exporting code to others (expands
+ out keywords, forces the use of a symbolic tag, and does not create
+ "CVS" directories within the checked out sources.
+
+ * The new "cvs import" command replaces the deprecated "checkin"
+ shell script and is used to import sources into CVS control. It is
+ also much faster for the first-time import. Some algorithmic
+ improvements have also been made to reduce the number of
+ conflicting files on next-time imports.
+
+ * The new "cvs admin" command is basically an interface to the
+ "rcs" program. (Not yet implemented very well).
+
+ * Signal handling (on systems with BSD or POSIX signals) is much
+ improved. Interrupting CVS now works with a single interrupt!
+
+ * CVS now invokes RCS commands by direct fork/exec rather than
+ calling system(3). This improves performance by removing a call to
+ the shell to parse the arguments.
+
+ * Support for the .cvsignore file has been contributed. CVS will
+ now show "unknown" files as "? filename" as the result of an "update"
+ command. The .cvsignore file can be used to add files to the
+ current list of ignored files so that they won't show up as unknown.
+
+ * Command argument changes:
+ cvs: Added -l to turn off history logging.
+ Added -n to show what would be done without actually
+ doing anything.
+ Added -q/-Q for quiet and really quiet settings.
+ Added -t to show debugging trace.
+ add: Added -k to allow RCS 5.x -k options to be specified.
+ admin: New command; an interface to rcs(1).
+ checkout: Added -A to reset sticky tags/date/options.
+ Added -N to not shorten module paths.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+ Changed -p (prune empty directories) to -P option.
+ Changed -f option; forcing tags match is now default.
+ Added -p option to checkout module to standard output.
+ Added -s option to cat the modules db with status.
+ Added -d option to checkout in the specified directory.
+ Added -k option to use RCS 5.x -k support.
+ commit: Removed -a option; use -l instead.
+ Removed -f option.
+ Added -l option to disable recursion.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+ If no files specified, commit is recursive.
+ diff: Now recognizes all RCS 5.x rcsdiff options.
+ Added -l option to disable recursion.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+ history: New command; displays info about CVS usage.
+ import: Replaces "checkin" shell script; imports sources
+ under CVS control. Ignores files on the ignore
+ list (see -I option or .cvsignore description above).
+ export: New command; like "checkout", but w/special options
+ turned on by default to facilitate exporting sources.
+ join: Added -B option to join from base of the branch;
+ join now defaults to only joining with the top two
+ revisions on the branch.
+ Added -k option for RCS 5.x -k support.
+ log: Supports all RCS 5.x options.
+ Added -l option to disable recursion.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+ patch: Changed -f option; forcing tags match is now default.
+ Added -c option to force context-style diffs.
+ Added -u option to support unidiff-style diffs.
+ Added -V option to support RCS specific-version
+ keyword expansion formats.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+ remove: No option changes. It's a bit more verbose.
+ rtag: Equivalent to the old "cvs tag" command.
+ No option changes. It's a lot faster for re-tag.
+ status: New output formats with more information.
+ Added -l option to disable recursion.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+ Added -v option to show symbolic tags for files.
+ tag: Functionality changed to tag checked out files
+ rather than modules; use "rtag" command to get the
+ old "cvs tag" behaviour.
+ update: Added -A to reset sticky tags/date/options.
+ Changed -p (prune empty directories) to -P option.
+ Changed -f option; forcing tags match is now default.
+ Added -p option to checkout module to standard output.
+ Added -I option to add files to the ignore list.
+ Added -R option to force recursion.
+
+ Major Contributors:
+
+ * Jeff Polk <polk@bsdi.com> rewrote most of the grody code of CVS
+ 1.2. He made just about everything dynamic (by using malloc),
+ added a generic hashed list manager, re-wrote the modules database
+ parsing in a compatible - but extended way, generalized directory
+ hierarchy recursion for virtually all the commands (including
+ commit!), generalized the loginfo file to be used for pre-commit
+ checks and commit templates, wrote a new and flexible RCS parser,
+ fixed an uncountable number of bugs, and helped in the design of
+ future CVS features. If there's anything gross left in CVS, it's
+ probably my fault!

+ * David G. Grubbs <dgg@ksr.com> contributed the CVS "history" and
+ "release" commands. As well as the ever-so-useful "-n" option of
+ CVS which tells CVS to show what it would do, without actually
+ doing it. He also contributed support for the .cvsignore file.
+
+ * Paul Sander, HaL Computer Systems, Inc. <paul@hal.com> wrote and
+ contributed the code in lib/sighandle.c. I added support for
+ POSIX, BSD, and non-POSIX/non-BSD systems.
+
+ * Free Software Foundation contributed the "configure" script and
+ other compatibility support in the "lib" directory, which will help
+ make CVS much more portable.
+
+ * Many others have contributed bug reports and enhancement requests.
+ Some have even submitted actual code which I have not had time yet
+ to integrate into CVS. Maybe for the next release.
+
+ * Thanks to you all!

+
+ * Changes from CVS 1.0 Patchlevel 1 to CVS 1.0 Patchlevel 2; also
+ known as "Changes from CVS 1.1 to CVS 1.2".
+
+ * Major new support with this release is the ability to use the
+ recently-posted RCS 5.5 distribution with CVS 1.2. See below for
+ other assorted bug-fixes that have been thrown in.
+
+ * ChangeLog (new): Added Emacs-style change-log file to CVS 1.2
+ release. Chronological description of changes between release.
+
+ * README: Small fixes to installation instructions. My email
+ address is now "berliner@sun.com".
+
+ * src/Makefile: Removed "rcstime.h". Removed "depend" rule.
+
+ * src/partime.c: Updated to RCS 5.5 version with hooks for CVS.
+ * src/maketime.c: Updated to RCS 5.5 version with hooks for CVS.
+ * src/rcstime.h: Removed from the CVS 1.2 distribution.
+ Thanks to Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> for these changes.
+
+ * src/checkin.csh: Support for RCS 5.5 parsing.
+ Thanks to Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> for this change.
+
+ * src/collect_sets.c (Collect_Sets): Be quieter if "-f" option is
+ specified. When checking out files on-top-of other files that CVS
+ doesn't know about, run a diff in the hopes that they are really
+ the same file before aborting.
+
+ * src/commit.c (branch_number): Fix for RCS 5.5 parsing.
+ Thanks to Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> for this change.
+
+ * src/commit.c (do_editor): Bug fix - fprintf missing argument
+ which sometimes caused core dumps.
+
+ * src/modules.c (process_module): Properly NULL-terminate
+ update_dir[] in all cases.
+
+ * src/no_difference.c (No_Difference): The wrong RCS revision was
+ being registered in certain (strange) cases.
+
+ * src/patch.c (get_rcsdate): New algorithm. No need to call
+ maketime() any longer.
+ Thanks to Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> for this change.
+
+ * src/patchlevel.h: Increased patch level to "2".
+
+ * src/subr.c (isdir, islink): Changed to compare stat mode bits
+ correctly.
+
+ * src/tag.c (tag_file): Added support for following symbolic links
+ that are in the master source repository when tagging. Made tag
+ somewhat quieter in certain cases.
+
+ * src/update.c (update_process_lists): Unlink the user's file if it
+ was put on the Wlist, meaning that the user's file is not modified
+ and its RCS file has been removed by someone else.
+
+ * src/update.c (update): Support for "cvs update dir" to correctly
+ just update the argument directory "dir".
+
+ * src/cvs.h: Fixes for RCS 5.5 parsing.
+ * src/version_number.c (Version_Number): Fixes for parsing RCS 5.5
+ and older RCS-format files.
+ Thanks to Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com> for these changes.
+
+ * src/version_number.c (Version_Number): Bug fixes for "-f" option.
+ Bug fixes for parsing with certain branch numbers. RCS
+ revision/symbol parsing is much more solid now.
