unedit
Synopsis
cvs [cvs-options] unedit [-lR] [files...]
Unmark a file as being edited by the current user. The
cvs unedit command is used as
part of the cvs watch family of
commands. If a file is being watched, CVS writes it (when it is checked out) to the sandbox
with read permissions but not write permissions. The unedit command notifies watchers that
the file is no longer being edited, clears the temporary watch,
sets the file as read-only, and restores the file to the
repository revision that the sandbox copy was based on. See also
edit, editors, watch, and watchers.
The script in the notify file in the repository’s CVSROOT directory is used to notify the user of changes.
Synonyms: none.
Standard subcommand options: -l,
-R.
