View Full Version : cvswrapper command for resource forks?

Apple's developer tools install a cvswrapper
file that adds savviness to cvs for things
like ProjectBuilder projects, bundles and
typical binary files.

I want to be able to add some special cases
for files that have resource forks. I've
searched for information on this and found
some clues (AppleSingle, xpak ?) but I
haven't found a working example. I also
see tools in the /Developer/Tools directory
which look like they might help, but there
arent man pages (CpMac, SplitForks,
RezMerge).

I just have a few legacy projects that use
resource forks (mainly codewarrior project
files and ResEdit .rsrc files) and I'd like to
be able to keep them in my cvs repository.

Any suggestions? Best of all would be a
working cvswrapper snippet...

Thanks,
Chris

I'd like to see this, too. I'm using one of the Apple-supplied cvswrapper files to handle binary stuff like TIFFs, but I still seem to run into difficulties pretty regularly and wind up wiping my repository and starting anew.
