SHTK_CVS_FETCH(3)	    Library Functions Manual	     SHTK_CVS_FETCH(3)

NAME
       shtk_cvs_fetch -- Checks	out or updates a CVS working copy

LIBRARY
       shtk_import cvs

SYNOPSIS
       shtk_cvs_fetch cvsroot module tag directory

DESCRIPTION
       The  shtk_cvs_fetch  function  is a simple wrapper over the lower-level
       shtk_cvs_checkout(3) and	shtk_cvs_update(3) functions, using one	or the
       other depending on the status of	the local working copy.

       More specifically: if directory does not	yet exist or it	is empty,  the
       shtk_cvs_fetch function checks out a new	working	copy of	the repository
       cvsroot	into it	using the given	module and tag.	 If directory does ex-
       ist and contains	a CVS control directory, then the shtk_cvs_fetch func-
       tion performs a working copy update of the repository using  the	 given
       tag.

       The  CVS	 tag  provided	in tag can be empty, in	which case the working
       copy is checked out from	`HEAD'.

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