CVSCHK is a quick and efficient software for offline verification of new file additions and modifications to existing files.
If you are a programmer who has used CVS, you know how difficult it can be to maintain an overview of the CVS status of files in your directories. That is where cvschk comes into play – a Perl program that checks the status of all CVS controlled files and provides an ASCII table sorted after the status of the files.
Cvschk is designed to help programmers get an overview of their files' status, even if they don't have access to the CVS repository. The program only works with local checks of the files. However, if you have fast access to your CVS repository, then you might want to consider using the additional features provided by the cvsstat program. This program can help you figure out if newer versions of files have been created by other developers.
When you run cvschk, it will give you an output that resembles the following:
The directory ./mytempdir is not under CVS control
Changed files
./cvs2html
./cvschk
./cvsstat
New files
./.#cvschk
./XX
./cvs2html.ok
To run cvschk, all you need is Perl 5.004 or later. The latest version includes a few improvements, including a fixed warning for 5.004_01 with defined($foo=) and the addition of a --tabular|-t switch.
All in all, cvschk is an efficient tool that can help programmers get a clear overview of the state of their files if they don't have access to their CVS repository.
