description
fixcvsdiff
modifies diff files created from the cvs diff
command, where files have been added or removed. CVS tends
to create diff files that patch(1)
mis-interprets. The diff file must retain the lines
beginning with “Index:” in order for the
correction to work.
options
-b
Keep a .bak backup file.
-p
Print out the cvs add
and cvs remove commands that must be made after
applying the diff, but before running cvs commit.
