SHTK_CVS_CHECKOUT(3)	    Library Functions Manual	  SHTK_CVS_CHECKOUT(3)

NAME
       shtk_cvs_checkout -- Checks out a new working copy out of a CVS reposi-
       tory

LIBRARY
       shtk_import cvs

SYNOPSIS
       shtk_cvs_checkout cvsroot module	tag directory

DESCRIPTION
       The  shtk_cvs_checkout  function	 checks	 out a new working copy	of the
       repository cvsroot into directory using the given module	and tag.   The
       directory must not exist.  The CVS tag provided in tag can be empty, in
       which case the working copy is checked out from `HEAD'.

       In   general,   you   should   resort   to   using   the	  higher-level
       shtk_cvs_fetch(3) wrapper as it properly	handles	the  case  of  already
       existing	 working copies	(which could be	caused by a previously aborted
       checkout, for example).

EXAMPLES
	     shtk_cvs_checkout :ext:anoncvs@anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot	\
		 src netbsd-7 /usr/src

ERRORS
       shtk_cvs_checkout aborts	execution with an error	if the given directory
       already exists or if the	CVS checkout operation fails.

SEE ALSO
       shtk(3),	shtk_cvs(3)

HISTORY
       shtk_cvs_checkout first appeared	in shtk	1.0.
