GNU Info (cvs.info)Ampersand modulesAmpersand modules ----------------- A module definition can refer to other modules by including `&MODULE' in its definition. MNAME [ options ] &MODULE... Then getting the module creates a subdirectory for each such module, in the directory containing the module. For example, if modules contains ampermod &first-dir then a checkout will create an `ampermod' directory which contains a directory called `first-dir', which in turns contains all the directories and files which live there. For example, the command $ cvs co ampermod will create the following files: ampermod/first-dir/file1 ampermod/first-dir/file2 ampermod/first-dir/sdir/sfile There is one quirk/bug: the messages that CVS prints omit the `ampermod', and thus do not correctly display the location to which it is checking out the files: $ cvs co ampermod cvs checkout: Updating first-dir U first-dir/file1 U first-dir/file2 cvs checkout: Updating first-dir/sdir U first-dir/sdir/sfile $ Do not rely on this buggy behavior; it may get fixed in a future release of CVS. automatically generated by info2www version 1.2.2.9 |
