Hi,

How do I revert to a version of a cvs directory that I had at a
previous date. Do I have to go through and revert each file
individually? When I do

cvs up -C -D "2012-07-05 13:41"

it sets the sticky date for all of the files, so I can't check the
reverted files in to the HEAD. Is there some way around this?

Thanks.

Andrew
