description
Supports most cvs commands and adds some extended functions. It also works with CVSNT quite well and has some support for multiple encodings. Part of the top-level menus are as follows (screen shot: http://wyw.dcweb.cn/download.asp?path=vim&file=vim_session.png): - Info - Setting (switches and update) - Keyword - Directory (directory operations; screen shot: http://wyw.dcweb.cn/download.asp?path=vim&file=cvs_localstatus.png) - Extra (operations on a specific revision, etc.) - Diff (in the split-window style of Vim; screen shot: http://wyw.dcweb.cn/download.asp?path=vim&file=cvs_diff.png) - Annotate (screen shot: http://wyw.dcweb.cn/download.asp?path=vim&file=cvs_annotate.png) - History - Log (screen shot: http://wyw.dcweb.cn/download.asp?path=vim&file=cvs_log.png) - Status - Local status (offline: displays status and version info) - Check out - Query update (like WinCVS/gCVS) - Update (conflicts will be highlighted) - Add - Commit The output can be sorted and is often clickable: it is easy to open conflicting files, etc. It works on single files as well as on whole directories, when called from fileexplorer. It also includes highlighting / mappings to navigate through cvs output or show conflicts. The menu is displayed in GUI versions of Vim. However, it is useful even in text-only Vim. --- You may choose to use `wildmenu', or you can use key sequences similar to the hot keys in menu. E.g. `alt-c, i' is used to commit with the GUI menu; so `,ci' could be used in text-mode Vim to commit. The leader key, currently `,', can be easily modified in the script. This is the re-release of Mr Thorsten Maerz's original script (vimscript #58), which was last updated in 2002. It now includes many bug fixes and enhancements. The latest revision of the cvsmenu script can also be found in the SourceForge CVS: :pserver:anonymous@ezytools.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ezytools/VimTools/cvsmenu.vim CvsMenu is able to update itself using this anonymous CVS. Find the menu items under `CVS > Settings > Install'.
