My favourite is cvsup2html which makes all the "Edit" and "Checkout" lines into links to the CVS repo on freefall? # cvsup2html < /usr/sup/cvsup.log > /usr/sup/cvsup.html cvsupchk is also useful; found loads of redundant files in my tree. From the README: This directory contains various utilities contributed by CVSup users. Please contact the individual authors of the utilities if you find bugs or have questions about them. cvsup2html Convert cvsup client log output into a web page, with each filename serving as a link to the cvsweb page for that file. cvsup2httplog Convert a cvsupd log file to standard httpd log file format, so that it can be analyzed by tools such as webalizer. cvsupchk Check for extraneous files in a tree maintained by CVSup. cvsupwho Show who is currently using your CVSup server. > I also happen to like to do things like this in the command line mode. > It looks like I will have a script that saves from the command line > and one to fire it off in the GUI mode. > > BTW, I like the mergemaster addition to 18.4.7.
