A.11.2 diff examples
--------------------
The following line produces a Unidiff (`-u' flag) between revision 1.14
and 1.19 of `backend.c'. Due to the `-kk' flag no keywords are
substituted, so differences that only depend on keyword substitution
are ignored.
$ cvs diff -kk -u -r 1.14 -r 1.19 backend.c
Suppose the experimental branch EXPR1 was based on a set of files
tagged RELEASE_1_0. To see what has happened on that branch, the
following can be used:
$ cvs diff -r RELEASE_1_0 -r EXPR1
A command like this can be used to produce a context diff between
two releases:
$ cvs diff -c -r RELEASE_1_0 -r RELEASE_1_1 > diffs
If you are maintaining ChangeLogs, a command like the following just
before you commit your changes may help you write the ChangeLog entry.
All local modifications that have not yet been committed will be
printed.
$ cvs diff -u | less
