SHTK_CVS_FETCH(3)     DragonFly Library Functions Manual     SHTK_CVS_FETCH(3)

NAME

shtk_cvs_fetch - Checks out or updates a CVS working copy

LIBRARY

shtk_import cvs

SYNOPSIS

shtk_cvs_fetch cvsroot module tag directory

DESCRIPTION

The shtk_cvs_fetch function is a simple wrapper over the lower-level shtk_cvs_checkout(3) and shtk_cvs_update(3) functions, using one or the other depending on the status of the local working copy. More specifically: if directory does not yet exist or it is empty, the shtk_cvs_fetch function checks out a new working copy of the repository cvsroot into it using the given module and tag. If directory does exist and contains a CVS control directory, then the shtk_cvs_fetch function performs a working copy update of the repository using the given tag. The CVS tag provided in tag can be empty, in which case the working copy is checked out from `HEAD'.

EXAMPLES

shtk_cvs_fetch :ext:anoncvs@anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot \ src netbsd-7 /usr/src
