If it isn't, you will get an error (such as error <code>2</code> on windows). If <code><cvs></code> doesn't work, try to execute <code>cvs.exe</code> from the command line in the target directory in which you are working. Also note that this task assumes that the cvs exceutable is compatible with the Unix version from cvshome.org, this is not completely true for certain other cvs clients - like CVSNT for example - and some operation may fail when using such an incompatible client. </p> <h3>Parameters</h3> <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td> <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td> <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="3">Attributes from parent Cvs task which are meaningful here<br> Since ant 1.6.1</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top">cvsRoot</td> <td valign="top">the <code>CVSROOT</code> variable.</td> <td align="center" valign="top">No</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top">cvsRsh</td> <td valign="top">the <code>CVS_RSH</code> variable.</td> <td align="center" valign="top">No</td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top">package</td> <td valign="top">the package/module to check out. <b>Note:</b> multiple attributes can be split using spaces.
