Description ieising 2005-08-03 07:03:02 UTC 
Hi,

I would like to see the feature where I can just ignore my own working copy of a
file and have it replaced with the latest version in CVS, as if I'd never had a
working copy, or just the other way around. Eclipse/WSAD has this feature and
calls it "override/update" or "override/commit".
It has proven very usefull in teamdevelopment setups.

Maybe this feature is present, but I haven't been able to locate it. In that
case I would like to ask to make it more obvious to use it.

Thanks,
Iwan

You can invoke "Update..." (in advanced mode) and with  checked "Get Clean
Repository Copy" option.

How about the other way around, ie commit my changes eventhough there is a newer
version in CVS?
