Hi,

I am trying to get somehow all the revision log that were made to a particular file, but I seem to stupid to do that :(

To checkout a module I do the following

CVSROOT="/home/projects/stuff/" cvs co myworkingdir

within myworkingdir I have a testfile called paper.tex and from this I wanna try to get the revisions but I tried the following but nothing works ...

CVSROOT="/home/projects/stuff/" cvs log paper.tex
cvs log: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs log: nothing known about paper.tex

-bash-3.2$ CVSROOT="/home/projects/stuff/" cvs log myworkingdir/paper.tex
cvs [log aborted]: no such directory `myworkingdir'

Anyone an idea how I could get the log of the revisions of the paper.tex file in the myworkingdir module?

Many thanks for your help! Claus
