CVS and importing external projects [message #61911] |

Is there a way to handle the mechanism described in the CVS user guide when
handling imported sources withn eclipse.
For instance:
Say I get a distribution of software (call it version 1.1). I want to
import it into CVS (giving it a version tag of SRC_1_1) then check it out
and hack on it locally. Later on I get another source drop (version 1.2).
I want to import it as SRC_1_2 and then merge the changes between 1.1 and
1.2 plus my local enhancements. Ideally I want to do this with eclipse so I
can use it do the merge using the visual diff support, etc.
I'm having some difficulty understanding the differences between updating
and synchronizing with a repository and haven't been able to determine the
equivalent gestures in eclipse to do what I describe above. Can anyone
help!?
Thanks in advance!
Mike
