EVIEWCVS

NAME

eviewcvs - Gentoo: generate viewcvs URLs

SYNOPSIS

eviewcvs [ files... ]

DESCRIPTION

This tool generates a list of viewcvs URLs based on the files listed, or all the files in the current directory if the file list is omitted. The first part of the output, hilighted in green, is the simple URLs to view the files. The second part of the output, hilighted in blue, is the URLs to view the diffs against the previous revision.

OPTIONS

Presently eviewcvs is simple enough that it supplies no options. Probably I'll add --help and --version in the future, but for now it's enough to track the gentoolkit version.

EXAMPLES

To generate viewcvs URLs for a given file:

 $ eviewcvs package.mask 
 http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/profiles/package.mask?rev=1.3716&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup 
 http://www.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/profiles/package.mask?r1=1.3715&r2=1.3716 

To generate viewcvs URLs for all files in a directory:

 $ cd portage/net-misc/keychain 
 $ eviewcvs 
 http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-misc/keychain/ChangeLog?rev=1.54&view=markup 
 http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-misc/keychain/Manifest?rev=1.86&view=markup 
 http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-misc/keychain/keychain-2.6.1.ebuild?rev=1.3&view=markup 
 http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo-x86/net-misc/keychain/keychain-2.6.2.ebuild?rev=1.1&view=markup
