Question - can CVS roll back in time? Is the following legal? export CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/home/wine cvs login <password> cvs checkout -r 20040505 wine cvs update -D 20040525 [Build Wine - see a problem] cvs update -D 20040515 [Build wine - see what happens] Does this work? Or do I need to checkout a new set of 20040505 files and then update to 20040515? I'm trying to avoid a make clean and rebuilding the whole tree which takes 45 minutes.
