CVS command for patches

[Joacim J]

Hi,

Assume that I have a project in CVS called 'MyProject'. It's now checked
out into 'C:\Projects\MyProject' connected to the HEAD stream. It has a
tag 'v1_0' and now some changes has been made and checked in. It's now
tagged as 'v1_0_1'.

I now need to distrbute a patch (zip or jar) only containing the changed
files between 'v1_0' and 'v1_0_1'.

How can I check out these files to
'C:\Projects\MyProject_1.0-1.0.1_patch' ??

It's fine to use CVS command at the prompt, ANT or...almost anything.

Please help!

cvs diff --help wil tell you all you need to know:

cvs diff -r tag0 -r tag1 -u > patch_tag0_tag1.patch
