Description Mark Drew CLA 2003-08-04 09:25:32 EDT 
Need ability to do a CVS "update -r" WITHOUT -C option

If I want to switch to a different CVS branch AND keep any local changes that
I've made, there doesn't seem to be any easy way to do this in eclipse's CVS
client right now.  

From the CVS command line, I could just do an "update -r".  I can accomplish
(almost) the same thing in eclipse by backing up any dirty files, doing a
replace with branch (update -r -C), and then restoring my dirty files.  This is,
however, very inconvenient.  Thanks!

Fix released to HEAD. Team>Update now presents a dialog that allows the 
selection of a tag.
