RE: CVS list files in repository which are currently in checked out status

Rupa,

You can scan the history file to see what files have ever been checked
out, but that won't tell you whether the users still have those files
that were checked out. This is because there is no opposite, or end, of
a checkout command. 

It's similar to looking at an .html web page which was looked at by a
web browser. You might have an access log on the web server that tells
when the user accessed that page, but you can't tell if they still have
it open. A CVS checkout is a bit like a download in that regard.

Subject: CVS list files in repository which are currently in checked out
status


Hi,
Is there a command or a way or a tools/script to list the files which
have
been checked out from the repository , i.e. list files which are
currently
checked out by various users. Doing this is useful before doing a build

Regards,
Rupa
