Thanks a lot for your help. I checked out the audit plugin, but it seems to be a commercial plugin. Do you know of any free alternatives? I must say that I didn't completely understand the second paragraph. All I really want is to be able to find out the names of all the files that changed since a certain tag. That used to be a one minute job with VSS, I can't imagine why it should be that difficult with such a mature product as CVS. -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org] On Behalf Of Bo Berglund Sent: Saturday, January 14, 2006 5:32 PM To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] Re: Problems with CVS History On Sat, 14 Jan 2006 14:44:17 +0400, "Tarek M.

Well, I never ever managed to get cvs history produce anything useful at all so I stopped trying... Instead I have enabled the auditing plugin for CVSNT and now I can fish out everything I like using simple database queries into the audit database. Of course similar to the history file auditing will not contain anything from before it was enabled.... Please also note that in standard CVS and CVSNT alike the tag is stored *without* a timestamp inside the RCS files so the only way to get a handle on time of tagging is to record the actual operation either in history (but as you have seen it is next to impossible to dig anything useful out of that) or by programming the taginfo script to log the tagging info yourself or by enabling the audit plugin in recent CVSNT. I prefer the audit anytime. /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden) _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
