This behaviour can be turned off with - cvs-sort-ignore-file. - -* A trailing newline is always added in commit log messages. This - behaviour can be turned off with - cvs-commit-buffer-require-final-newline. - -* This version of pcl-cvs should work together with RCVS. I have not - tested this myself, though. - -* Plus some bug fixes. (Note that the version of cookie.el that is - distributed with pcl-cvs 1.04 contains errors that affects pcl-cvs. - You should get Elib 0.07). - - -User-visible changes in pcl-cvs from 1.03 to 1.04: - -* Support for Emerge. Hitting "e" on a file that is Modified, Merged - or in Conflict will start Emerge, an interactive file merger written - in Emacs Lisp. This requires Emerge version 4. Emerge is not - included in this package. If you can't find it anywhere else, you - can get in from ftp.lysator.liu.se in pub/emacs. This package makes - it a lot easier to resolve conflicts. - -* Emacs will now automatically revert your buffers when the CVS - commands pcl-cvs issues causes the file to change. This automatic - revert never occurs if the buffer contents did not agree with the - file prior to the command. - -* If you are running Lucid GNU Emacs, you will get some fonts and - mouse support. This was contributed from people at Lucid. - -* The variable cvs-cvsroot can be used to select the location if the - repository. You no longer need to exit Emacs, setenv CVSROOT, and - start a new Emacs if you work with multiple repositories. - -* The "q" key can be used to hide the *cvs* buffer. - -* The name of the commands in the *cvs* have changed. If it was called - cvs-foo, it will now be called cvs-mode-foo. See the ChangeLog - entry from Tue Aug 4 03:02:25 1992 for a complete list of changes. - -* The variable cvs-cvs-diff-flags is no longer used. Instead, - cvs-diff-flags is always used. - -* Plus a lot of bug fixes. - - -User-visible changes in pcl-cvs from 1.02 to 1.03: - -* Output from CVS to stdout and stderr is separated and parsed - independently. In that way pcl-cvs should work regardless of - whether stdout is buffered or line-buffered. Pcl-cvs should now - work with CVS 1.3 without modifications on hosts such as - DECstations. - -* Pcl-cvs now fully supports RCS version 5.6 as well as 5.5. - -* New functions: - - + cvs-undo-local-changes ("U") - Undo all your modifications - to a file and get the newest - version from the repository. - + cvs-update-other-window - Similar to cvs-update. - + cvs-byte-compile-files - Byte compile the selected files. - -* cvs-update now displays the *cvs* buffer, which initially contains a - small message ("Running `cvs update' in /foo/bar/gazonk/...") until - the update is ready. The *cvs* buffer no longer pops up when the - update is ready. It often failed to pop up, due to race conditions - that are very hard to solve (and I doubt that they were at all - solvable). - -* cvs-unmark-all-files is moved from "U" to "ESC DEL" to be - "compatible" with dired. - -* cvs-diff ("d") and cvs-diff-backup ("b") can be configured to work - on only the file the cursor is positioned on, and ignore any marked - files. A prefix argument toggles this. - -* Only one `cvs update' can be run at a time. (It was previously - possible to start more than one simultaneously, but pcl-cvs could - not really handle more than one.) - -* Some rudimentary support for programs that CVS runs at update (due - to the -u switch in the modules file). - -* Pcl-cvs now automatically generates a bug report if it can't parse - the output from CVS. - -* The *cvs* buffer is read-only. - -* Pcl-cvs now creates temporary files in $TMPDIR if that environment - variable is set (otherwise it uses /tmp). - ----End of file NEWS--- -#ident "@(#)cvs/contrib/pcl-cvs:$Name: $:$Id: NEWS,v 1.1 1996/04/14 15:17:54 kfogel Exp $" |
