A.1 Overall structure of CVS commands

The overall format of all CVS commands is:

cvs [ cvs_options ] cvs_command [ command_options ] [ command_args ]

cvs: The name of the CVS program.
cvs_options: Some options that affect all sub-commands of CVS. These are described below.
cvs_command: One of several different sub-commands. Some of the commands have aliases that can be used instead; those aliases are noted in the reference manual for that command. There are only two situations where you may omit ‘cvs_command’: ‘cvs -H’ elicits a list of available commands, and ‘cvs -v’ displays version information on CVS itself.
command_options: Options that are specific for the command.
command_args: Arguments to the commands.

There is unfortunately some confusion between cvs_options and command_options. When given as a cvs_option, some options only affect some of the commands. When given as a command_option it may have a different meaning, and be accepted by more commands. In other words, do not take the above categorization too seriously. Look at the documentation instead.

A.2 CVS's exit status

CVS can indicate to the calling environment whether it succeeded or failed by setting its exit status. The exact way of testing the exit status will vary from one operating system to another. For example in a unix shell script the ‘$?’ variable will be 0 if the last command returned a successful exit status, or greater than 0 if the exit status indicated failure.

If CVS is successful, it returns a successful status; if there is an error, it prints an error message and returns a failure status. The one exception to this is the cvs diff command. It will return a successful status if it found no differences, or a failure status if there were differences or if there was an error. Because this behavior provides no good way to detect errors, in the future it is possible that cvs diff will be changed to behave like the other CVS commands.

A.3 Default options and the ~/.cvsrc file

There are some command_options that are used so often that you might have set up an alias or some other means to make sure you always specify that option. One example (the one that drove the implementation of the ‘.cvsrc’ support, actually) is that many people find the default output of the ‘diff’ command to be very hard to read, and that either context diffs or unidiffs are much easier to understand.

The ‘~/.cvsrc’ file is a way that you can add default options to cvs_commands within cvs, instead of relying on aliases or other shell scripts.

The format of the ‘~/.cvsrc’ file is simple. The file is searched for a line that begins with the same name as the cvs_command being executed. If a match is found, then the remainder of the line is split up (at whitespace characters) into separate options and added to the command arguments before any options from the command line.

If a command has two names (e.g., checkout and co), the official name, not necessarily the one used on the command line, will be used to match against the file. So if this is the contents of the user's ‘~/.cvsrc’ file:

log -N
diff -uN
rdiff -u
update -Pd
checkout -P
release -d

the command ‘cvs checkout foo’ would have the ‘-P’ option added to the arguments, as well as ‘cvs co foo’.

With the example file above, the output from ‘cvs diff foobar’ will be in unidiff format. ‘cvs diff -c foobar’ will provide context diffs, as usual. Getting "old" format diffs would be slightly more complicated, because diff doesn't have an option to specify use of the "old" format, so you would need ‘cvs -f diff foobar’.

In place of the command name you can use cvs to specify global options (see section Global options). For example the following line in ‘.cvsrc’

cvs -z6

causes CVS to use compression level 6.

A.4 Global options

The available ‘cvs_options’ (that are given to the left of ‘cvs_command’) are:

--allow-root=rootdir

May be invoked multiple times to specify one legal CVSROOT directory with each invocation. Also causes CVS to preparse the configuration file for each specified root, which can be useful when configuring write proxies, See Setting up the server for password authentication & Distributing load across several CVS servers.

-a

Authenticate all communication between the client and the server. Only has an effect on the CVS client. As of this writing, this is only implemented when using a GSSAPI connection (see section Direct connection with GSSAPI). Authentication prevents certain sorts of attacks involving hijacking the active TCP connection. Enabling authentication does not enable encryption.

-b bindir

In CVS 1.9.18 and older, this specified that RCS programs are in the bindir directory. Current versions of CVS do not run RCS programs; for compatibility this option is accepted, but it does nothing.

-T tempdir

Use tempdir as the directory where temporary files are located.

The CVS client and server store temporary files in a temporary directory. The path to this temporary directory is set via, in order of precedence:

The argument to the global ‘-T’ option.
The value set for TmpDir in the config file (server only - see section The CVSROOT/config configuration file).
The contents of the $TMPDIR environment variable (%TMPDIR% on Windows - see section All environment variables which affect CVS).
/tmp

Temporary directories should always be specified as an absolute pathname. When running a CVS client, ‘-T’ affects only the local process; specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and vice versa.

-d cvs_root_directory

Use cvs_root_directory as the root directory pathname of the repository. Overrides the setting of the $CVSROOT environment variable. See section The Repository.

-e editor

Use editor to enter revision log information. Overrides the setting of the $CVSEDITOR and $EDITOR environment variables. For more information, see Committing your changes.

-f

Do not read the ‘~/.cvsrc’ file. This option is most often used because of the non-orthogonality of the CVS option set. For example, the ‘cvs log’ option ‘-N’ (turn off display of tag names) does not have a corresponding option to turn the display on. So if you have ‘-N’ in the ‘~/.cvsrc’ entry for ‘log’, you may need to use ‘-f’ to show the tag names.

-H

--help

Display usage information about the specified ‘cvs_command’ (but do not actually execute the command). If you don't specify a command name, ‘cvs -H’ displays overall help for CVS, including a list of other help options.

-R

Turns on read-only repository mode. This allows one to check out from a read-only repository, such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CD-ROM repository.

Same effect as if the T’ affects only the local process; specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and vice versa.


 -d cvs_root_directory
Use cvs_root_directory as the root directory
pathname of the repository.  Overrides the setting of
the $CVSROOT environment variable.  See section The Repository.




 -e editor
Use editor to enter revision log information.  Overrides the

Turns on read-only repository mode.  This allows one to check out from a
read-only repository, such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CD-ROM
repository.

Same effect as if the T’ affects only the local process;
specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and

 -d cvs_root_directory
Use cvs_root_directory as the root directory
pathname of the repository.  Overrides the setting of
the $CVSROOT environment variable.  See section The Repository.

option to turn the display on.  So if you have
‘-N’ in the ‘~/.cvsrc’ entry for ‘log’,
you may need to use ‘-f’ to show the tag names.

(but do not actually execute the command).  If you don't specify
a command name, ‘cvs -H’ displays overall help for

 -R
Turns on read-only repository mode.  This allows one to check out from a
read-only repository, such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CD-ROM
repository.

Same effect as if the T’ affects only the local process;
specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and

(but do not actually execute the command).  If you don't specify
a command name, ‘cvs -H’ displays overall help for
CVS, including a list of other help options.



 -R
Turns on read-only repository mode.  This allows one to check out from a
read-only repository, such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CD-ROM
repository.

Same effect as if the T’ affects only the local process;
specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and
vice versa.




 -d cvs_root_directory
Use cvs_root_directory as the root directory
pathname of the repository.  Overrides the setting of
the $CVSROOT environment variable.  See section The Repository.




 -e editor

setting of the $CVSEDITOR and $EDITOR
environment variables.  For more information, see

option to turn the display on.  So if you have
‘-N’ in the ‘~/.cvsrc’ entry for ‘log’,
you may need to use ‘-f’ to show the tag names.

Display usage information about the specified ‘cvs_command’
(but do not actually execute the command).  If you don't specify
a command name, ‘cvs -H’ displays overall help for
CVS, including a list of other help options.



 -R
Turns on read-only repository mode.  This allows one to check out from a
read-only repository, such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CD-ROM
repository.

Same effect as if the T’ affects only the local process;
specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and
vice versa.




 -d cvs_root_directory
Use cvs_root_directory as the root directory
pathname of the repository.  Overrides the setting of
the $CVSROOT environment variable.  See section The Repository.

option to turn the display on.  So if you have
‘-N’ in the ‘~/.cvsrc’ entry for ‘log’,
you may need to use ‘-f’ to show the tag names.

 --help
Display usage information about the specified ‘cvs_command’
(but do not actually execute the command).  If you don't specify
a command name, ‘cvs -H’ displays overall help for
CVS, including a list of other help options.



 -R
Turns on read-only repository mode.  This allows one to check out from a
read-only repository, such as within an anoncvs server, or from a CD-ROM
repository.

Same effect as if the T’ affects only the local process;
specifying ‘-T’ for the client has no effect on the server and
vice versa.




 -d cvs_root_directory
Use cvs_root_directory as the root directory
pathname of the repository.  Overrides the setting of
the $CVSROOT environment variable.  See section The Repository.




 -e editor
Use editor to enter revision log information.  Overrides the
setting of the $CVSEDITOR and $EDITOR
environment variables.  For more information, see
Committing your changes.


 -f
Do not read the ‘~/.cvsrc’ file.  This
option is most often used because of the
non-orthogonality of the CVS option set.  For
example, the ‘cvs log’ option ‘-N’ (turn off
display of tag names) does not have a corresponding
option to turn the display on.  So if you have
‘-N’ in the ‘~/.cvsrc’ entry for ‘log’,
you may need to use ‘-f’ to show the tag names.


 -H
 --help
Display usage information about the specified ‘cvs_command’
(but do not actually execute the command).  If you don't specify
a command name, ‘cvs -H’ displays overall help for
CVS, including a list of other help options.

Turns on read-only repository mode.  This allows one to check out from a
