Deleting Module History CVS


I'm searching for a way to delete one module's complete history.

I'm starting a project and there's already one temporary module someone else created with the name I should use for this module.

The repository has some testing commits and changes that I don't want to keep.

I want to be able to completely delete this one module and all of it's history, but keeping the other modules and their history. This is not negotiable!

PS: I know no one uses CVS anymore, We're in the middle of migrating to a DVCS, but in the mean time we need to get this working.


Solution

  • If you are absolutely sure you never want the module again, you can just delete the entire folder from the repository. If you do want to retain the information then you can just rename the folder and you should be able to check out the module with this new name.
