.SH NAME
|
|
|
|
|
cvsbackport \- backport the last change in HEAD to a branch
|
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
.B cvsbackport
|
|
|
|
|
\fIfile\fP ...
|
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
For each file given on the command line,
|
|
|
|
|
\fBcvsbackport\fP will attempt to determine the last change made to
|
|
|
|
|
the file in HEAD and then backport that change to a CVS branch (the
|
|
|
|
|
branch name is hard-coded; see below).
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The changes to be backported will be displayed on screen, and you will
|
|
|
|
|
have the chance to confirm or abort before any commits are made.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
The files must be checked out from HEAD when you run this utility.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
This utility is part of the TDE Software Development Kit.
|
|
|
|
|
.SH WARNINGS
|
|
|
|
|
The branch tag is hard-coded into the script (currently it is set to
|
|
|
|
|
KDE_3_4_BRANCH).
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
If you abort (i.e., you do not make the suggested commits), your files
|
|
|
|
|
will be checked out from the branch (and not from HEAD as they were
|
|
|
|
|
before).
