A.1 Overall structure of CVS commands

The overall format of all CVS commands is:

 
cvs [ cvs_options ] cvs_command [ command_options ] [ command_args ]

cvs
The name of the CVS program.

cvs_options
Some options that affect all sub-commands of CVS. These are described below.

cvs_command
One of several different sub-commands. Some of the commands have aliases that can be used instead; those aliases are noted in the reference manual for that command. There are only two situations where you may omit `cvs_command': `cvs -H' elicits a list of available commands, and `cvs -v' displays version information on CVS itself.

command_options
Options that are specific for the command.

command_args
Arguments to the commands.

There is unfortunately some confusion between cvs_options and command_options. `-l', when given as a cvs_option, only affects some of the commands. When it is given as a command_option is has a different meaning, and is accepted by more commands. In other words, do not take the above categorization too seriously. Look at the documentation instead.
