For this assignment, the goal is to set up CVS (Concurrent Versions System) for your team directory for use in your team projects.  The CVS path for SCF accounts is /usr/usc/cvs/1.10/bin.  Each team will need to set up CVS to work for their team directory(e.g. set up a repository, etc).   Individually, you will be required to do the following:
  1. Check out a document
  2. Make changes to the document
  3. Commit your changes
  4. Add a new file
  5. Set a watch on this file
  6. Make changes to that file
  7. Abandon your changes and revert to the file in the repository
  8. Set the watch off on that file
  9. Delete that file
Turn in a printout of the revision history of the file showing only your actions.  Please refer to the Electronic Paper EP-09 for additional information on the use of CVS.
