Thread: Quick help with CVS?

It would normally be cvs update -A filename, but the postgresql.org CVS server doesn't support this. So I suggest 'rm && cvs update'. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net

If you don't care about yor modifications, you can just rm the file then "cvs update -Pd" to re-add it from the repository. There are other ways too.
