NAME

cvscheck - identify files added, changed, or removed in a CVS working directory  

SYNOPSIS

cvscheck  

DESCRIPTION

This command is a housekeeping aid. It should be run in a working directory that has been checked out using CVS. It identifies files that have been added, changed, or removed in the working directory, but not CVS committed. It also determines whether the files have been CVS added or CVS removed. For directories, this command determines only whether they have been added. It operates in the current directory only.

This command provides information that is available using CVS status and CVS diff. The advantage of cvscheck is that its output is very concise. It saves you the strain (and potential error) of interpreting the output of CVS status and diff.

See cvs(local) or cvshelp(local) for instructions on how to add or remove a file or directory in a CVS-controlled package.  

DIAGNOSTICS

The exit status is 0 if no files have been added, changed, or removed from the current directory. Otherwise, the command returns a count of the adds, changes, and deletes.
