Sure. Just issue a 'cvs update -d' command. That will retrieve any new files and directories.
I was wondering if there was a way to do that without retrieving any files.
As a side note, though: don't be poking around the Entries file. There is rarely, if ever, any need to examine the contents of the file. Always use the cvs command interface to determine what's out of date.
I agree. We got ourselves into a weird state where I'd like to be able to have Entries reflect what can be updated so I can start at the root and selectively update pieces. In its current state it thinks there are only two subdirectories. But I think doing 'cvs -n update -d' will also give us a good starting point. -- Steve Sapovits address@hidden
