A couple of notes:
...
> Then, update *only* the ecpg source directory to the branch:
> cd pgsql/src/interfaces
> cvs update -r ecpg_big_bison ecpg
cvs will respect any changes you have made to the sources in your
directory and the changes will be preserved in the move to the branch.
Here is what the update looks like on my machine:
myst$ cvs update -r ecpg_big_bison ecpg
cvs update: Updating ecpg
cvs update: Updating ecpg/include
cvs update: Updating ecpg/lib
? ecpg/lib/libecpg.so.3.2.0
? ecpg/lib/libecpg.so.3.3.0
? ecpg/lib/libecpg.so.3.4.0
cvs update: Updating ecpg/preproc
? ecpg/preproc/ecpg
cvs update: Updating ecpg/test
If you want to check on the branch status of a particular file use the
"status" command. For example, checking on ecpg/Makefile looks like:
myst$ cvs status ecpg/Makefile
