Hi, I want to use ls -D "date" to list files that were present at some point in my project. ex: > cvs -Q ls -q -e -D "Tue Dec 2 19:02:03 2003 GMT" ModuleName /File.txt/1.1/Tue Dec 2 19:02:03 2003// D/Dir1//// D/Dir2//// If I do a ls for the second before this file was first added i get: >cvs -Q ls -q -e -D "Tue Dec 2 19:02:02 2003 GMT" ModuleName D/Dir1//// D/Dir2//// Which is what i would expect. However if I later remove File.txt from the module: > cvs remove File.txt > cvs commit -m "Removing file" File.txt after a ls command would show the file has correctly disapeared: >cvs -Q ls -q -e ModuleName D/Dir1//// D/Dir2//// However, if I perform a ls with the -D argument it no longer show the file: > cvs -Q ls -q -e -D "Tue Dec 2 19:02:03 2003 GMT" ModuleName D/Dir1//// D/Dir2//// But if I get the module with the correct -D argument the file will be there.... Is it that the 'ls' command doesn't show files in the attic? Why? I am using CVSNT version 2.0.11 Thanks, Mathieu
