Hi All,

I am facing an issue with keywords in CVS.

The issue is

we checked out one file a.c , from linux 2.6.28 ( linux.org). Then checked =
in the file to our CVS server. Multiple people have have checked in the fil=
e a.c

Now when I am checking out , I can see that the keywords are changed & it s=
hows the name of the last person who have checked in that file. I have trie=
d with CVS -ko flag, which will only able to go back to just previous check=
 in detail.

So is there any way to replace the current CVS keyword information with the=
 original one, that is the first checked in file's cvs keyword information.

[ by cvs -kk, we can disable the keyword expansion, but it will remove the =
original authors information also. ]

Thanks & Regards,
