C.1.5 Module options
Either regular modules or ampersand modules can contain
options, which supply additional information concerning
the module.
-d
name- Name the working directory something other than the
module name.
-e
prog- Specify a program prog to run whenever files in a
module are exported. prog runs with a single
argument, the module name.
-o
prog- Specify a program prog to run whenever files in a
module are checked out. prog runs with a single
argument, the module name. See Module program options for
information on how prog is called.
-s
status- Assign a status to the module. When the module file is
printed with cvs checkout -s the modules are
sorted according to primarily module status, and
secondarily according to the module name. This option
has no other meaning. You can use this option for
several things besides status: for instance, list the
person that is responsible for this module.
-t
prog- Specify a program prog to run whenever files in a
module are tagged with
rtag
. prog runs
with two arguments: the module name and the symbolic
tag specified to rtag
. It is not run
when tag
is executed. Generally you will find
that the taginfo file is a better solution (see taginfo).
You should also see see Module program options about how the
“program options” programs are run.
