how to checkout from cvs from command line.
First set the CVSROOT environment variable. In our case, let the CVSROOT be
CVSROOT = :pserver:vignesh.prabhu@cvs:/opt/cvs/reps/mmp3000
Now login to the cvs server using the following command:
$cvs login
This will prompt you for your account password. After you have successfully authenticated with password, you can checkout from the cvs server using the following command:
cvs co -r tag10 project/sub_project
where tag10 is the tag from which you want to checkout
and project/sub_project is the part of the project which you want to start checkout.
If you directly want to checkout from HEAD, then use the following command:
cvs co project/sub_project
