NAME

       cvsbackport - backport the last change in HEAD to a branch

SYNOPSIS

       cvsbackport file ...

DESCRIPTION

       For  each  file  given on the command line, cvsbackport will attempt to determine the last change made to
       the file in HEAD and then backport that change to a CVS  branch  (the  branch  name  is  hard-coded;  see
       below).

       The  changes  to  be  backported  will be displayed on screen, and you will have the chance to confirm or
       abort before any commits are made.

       The files must be checked out from HEAD when you run this utility.

       This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

WARNINGS

       The branch tag is hard-coded into the script (currently it is set to KDE_3_4_BRANCH).

       If you abort (i.e., you do not make the suggested commits), your files  will  be  checked  out  from  the
       branch (and not from HEAD as they were before).
