[auton-users] using emacs cvs mode

[Dan Pelleg]

The emacs plug-in I showed in the meeting is called pcl-cvs. You can read
the info page on it (C-h i, then choose pcl-cvs), or this short summary:

M-x cvs-update to get a listing of all out-of-date files (you'll need to
choose a directory to do this in, eg ~/h/utils)

You will get a "CVS" menu at the top. Useful commands are:

c - commit a file. You'll be asked to write a commit message in a separate
buffer and hit C-c C-c when you're done

l - see the CVS log (all historical commit messages)

= - see the diff from the local to the repository version

m - mark a file. You can mark a bunch of files and then hit "c" and they'll
all be committed together (with the same commit message).



I had to adjust the colors in my buffer because it was too dark. However I
don't think that applies to everyone so if you get that let me know and
I'll post the relevant instructions.
