recursive add
Wei Shi
Maybe this question has been brought up before. Is
there a recursive add command in CVS?
Thanks.
Wei

I'm not sure what you mean with "recursive add". Possibly, the following
commands might accomplish what you want to do:
$ cvs add `find . -type d`
$ cvs add `find . -type f`
(I expect you are running on a Unix box, or with Cygwin on Windows)
If there are too much files/directories, you might encounter problems
with the maximum line length of the shell interpreter. In this case,
replacing the second command with
$ find . -type f -exec cvs add \{\} \;
is a good replacement, neglecting the fact this this command will be
much slower for a remote repository.
HTH,
Spiro.
