Package tla-tools-0.2004.p90-2

A collection of useful shell scripts for working with the GNU Arch (tla) revision control system.

The main user commands in tla-tools are: tla-switch Switches an arch project tree's current branch to another branch, changing the actual source files to match (unlike the builtin tla command tla set-tree-version) tla-fork Makes a new arch branch forking off the current branch in a project tree, and makes that the tree's current branch. tla-cvs-sync Does bi-directional gatewaying of an arch branch with a CVS branch. tla-svn-sync Does bi-directional gatewaying of an arch branch with a Subversion branch. tla-update-ids Goes through a project tree, and automatically adds or updates taglines and explicit id-tags. tla-file-log Outputs arch changeset logs which affect a specified file. tla-fix-changelog-conflicts Looks through a project tree for ChangeLog.rej files (containing conflicts from merging changes to the ChangeLog file), and tries to automatically fix them up, using a simple rule. tla-copy-changes Copies changesets from one arch branch to another. tla-partner Runs a tla command using the "partner version" of a project tree (defined by the contents of the file {arch}/+partner). Some other handy commands include: tla-changelogs-to-log Turns any changes in (GNU-style) ChangeLog files in a project tree into a single log text appropriate for including in a tla commit log. tla-commit-merge Does a tla commit with a log text appropriate for a merge: the Summary: line mentions the merged version, and the body is the output of tla log-for-merge filtered through tla-abbrev-merge-log. tla-abbrev-merge-log A filter for the output of tla log-for-merge which replace repetitive sequences of entries with an abbreviated form. tla-log-to-cvs-log Converts an arch changeset commit log into a compact form suitable for including in a CVS commit log. tla-fork-archive Forks branches from one archive into another. tla-munge-archive-names Destructively modify an arch archive to change the names of arch categories/branches/versions
