Checking Out Source Code and Committing Your Changes

Assuming that you created your repository from preexising source files and that you imported files into a directory called ``234_tree'' by following the above steps, you can now acquire a working copy of the source by using the ``cvs checkout'' function:

cvs checkout 234_tree
cd 234_tree

You now have a subdirectory in your current directory called ``234_tree'' which contains all the source files from the 234_tree directory within the repository. If you edit the file ``234_tree.C'' and decide to integrate the changes into the repository, you may do so with the ``cvs commit'' command:

cvs commit -m ``Added treecpy() function'' 234_tree.C
