Greetings.

Do we have any CVS command line options where in we can retrieve API/
function names that have been modified between two given cvs tags.

Thanks in Advance

CVS has no concept of "API" or "function names" - or anything other than
"source code" - so I'm afraid the answer is "no."

That's right. However, the -p option to "cvs diff" might give a hint. It
will not solve the problem automatically, and it only works for C (and
a little bit for C++ and Java), but at least it gives some hints.

HTH,
