Hi. I am trying to generate a set of patches for a set of files.
I retrieved the set of files from the sourceforge project and made
some modifications, which included adding completely new files.
When I tried to generate a patch listing with
cvs diff -RN
I got everything except the new files. These were listed at the
top of the diff/patch list with '?' marks. I then found out that
I have to cvs add these files. My problem is that when I try to
add I get an error that says I need write access to the
repository. I don't want to write to the "real" repository, just
my local copy so that I can generate a patch file. How do I get
cvs to add only to my local copy?
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA
