CVS Report by tag

[Ziggy]

Hi Guys,

I am tearing my head out over this one.

What i am trying to do is i want to create a report from CVS using a
specific tag. I have managed to do it using the following command.

cvs log -S rMyTag

The above command does work but the problem is it gives me more information
than what i need. I would like to be able to issue a command on the root
folder and just get the following information

- Rcs file
- The revision

So for example if i issue the command cvs log -S rMyTag it should show
something like this

Rcs file :
'/u03/cvsroot/ccs21/src/gui/WebContent/pages/consignment/listConsignmentsToDeclare
Revision : 1.19

The 1.19 should be the revision on the tag not the latest revision.

Is this at all possible on CVS??

Thanks

Not directly, but perhaps indirectly:

cvs log -S -rMyTag | egrep '^RCS file|^revision'
