With the transition of the Tcl/Tk Source Repositories from CVS over to Fossil it becomes necessary to learn a new set of commands. This page was made to help with that, by showing equivalent CVS and Fossil commands.
| Action | CVS | Fossil |
|---|---|---|
| Add a file | touch FOO cvs add FOO | touch FOO fossil add FOO |
| Remove a file | rm FOO cvs remove FOO | rm FOO fossil rm FOO |
| Rename a file | mv FOO BAR cvs remove FOO cvs add BAR | mv FOO BAR fossil mv FOO BAR |
| Show files made and not added | fossil extra |
General Note: Fossil has a builtin help system. Invoke it via
fossil help
For help on specific commands use
