Is there some command to be used in taginfo to get the >filename and version passed on? I use a straight tag command (cvs -q >tag -c Tag filename) to invoke the tag. cvsnt passes the filename/version information to the standard input of the filter. This is different from Unix CVS which attempts to pass it on the command line (which overflows if you try to tag a large project). The documentation in the taginfo file itself states: # The "taginfo" file is used to control pre-tag checks. # The filter on the right is invoked with the following arguments: # # $1 -- tagname # $2 -- operation "add" for tag, "mov" for tag -F, and "del" for tag -d # $3 -- repository # # The filter is passed a series of filename/version pairs on its standard input Tony
