5.9 Adding and removing files

The following commands are available to make it easy to add files to and remove them from the CVS repository.

a

Add all selected files. This command can be used on `Unknown' files (see Buffer contents). The status of the file will change to `Added', and you will have to use c (`cvs-mode-commit' see Committing changes), to really add the file to the repository.

This command can also be used on `Removed' files (before you commit them) to resurrect them.

The command that is run is cvs-mode-add.

r

This command removes the selected files (after prompting for confirmation). The files are deleted from your directory and (unless the status was `Unknown'; see Buffer contents) they will also be `cvs remove'd. If the files' status was `Unknown' they will disappear from the buffer. Otherwise their status will change to `Removed', and you must use c (`cvs-mode-commit', see Committing changes) to commit the removal.

The command that is run is cvs-mode-remove-file.
