Re: cvs_stat

I'm not sure about your cvs ... but it doesn't quite work here. Here's a patch:

+++ cvs_stat    2005-01-22 15:03:21.000000000 -0700

     }
     if (/^File: (.*[^ ])\s+Status: (.*)$/) {

Here, cvs stat says "cvs status: Examining", not "cvs server: Examining".

Next steps in cleaning this up are: eliminating the annoying "./" prefix for files in the current directory (debatable - maybe that's just me), and adding the dir prefix for the unknown files.

I'll apply that - must be a different version of cvs. I don't get a ./ prefix for the current directory, and I _do_ get the dir prefix for new and missing files (that's why the script keeps track of the dir seperately). Maybe your cvs output is quite different - what version do you have?	[reply]

Here's the version: $ cvs -v Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.2 (client/server) Copyright (c) 1989-2001 Brian Berliner, david d `zoo' zuhn, Jeff Polk, and other authors CVS may be copied only under the terms of the GNU General Public Licen +se, a copy of which can be found with the CVS distribution kit.
