I think the most straightforward way is: cvs update cg-rm -a cg-status -wns \? | xargs cg-add cg-commit If you want to be careful about filenames polluted by non-newline whitespaces, cg-status -wns \? | tr '\n' '\0' | xargs -0 cg-add If you want to be safe even with filenames containing newlines, you need to go at the Git level: git-ls-files -z --others | \ xargs -0 git-update-index --add -- Perhaps we might make a special command which would sync the index set with the working copy set... -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ A person is just about as big as the things that make them angry. - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
