Wing's CVS integration requires the cvs command line executable to be installed separately from Wing. Please see http://www.nongnu.org/cvs/ for information about CVS. The cvs executable may either be in your path or set with the Version Control > CVS > CVS Executable preference.

The CVS integration works best if usernames and passwords are handled by an SSH agent. For details on this see SSH Setup Details and the CVS documentation.

If this is not possible and you must use the obsolete pserver authentication mechanism, you will need to issue the cvs login command once from the command line before starting Wing.

The CVS integration defines the following commands, in addition to those documented in Common Version Control Operations:

Update updates the local copy with changes from the repository.

Update Project updates all the directories in the project with changes from the repository.
