Er, I've searched the CVS docs for definitions of these various terms,
and not gotten much joy. It's quite likely i've used them incorrectly.
What I mean is that if you have no sticky tags defined, then
cvs diff .
gives the same diff (give or take a level of directory structure) as
cvs checkout -d newspace; diff -r oldspace newspace.
Is that correct? It's certainly what I expect. If not, how do you
get that?
