Abstract

Synchronizes a local sandbox with a CVS repository. See also Update Special.

1. To update a folder either right-click on it or within it on the Explorer view (but not on any specific files) or to update one or more files select the files to update and right-click on them.

2. Select CVS Update from the context-menu.

3. The Progress Dialog will appear to provide a detail status of the files that are being updated by TortoiseCVS. By default this dialog will close after the operation is complete, unless it encounters a problem.
