python script for tortoise cvs

[sandeep]

hi

we are using tortoise cvs and putty. i want to write a python script
to whom i can provide a tag and module.now what this script will do is
look for this specific tag and checks for whether its a individual tag
or its inside a branch.if its inside a branch then find out what is
the branch tag and then check out that branch for me else it checks
out that module with that tag.

Actually the thing is i am not able to find the way how i will do it
and for where i have to look for the info.so any help will be
appreciated.

thanks and regards

I don't know if Tortoise is scriptable, but Subversion certainly is -
<http://pysvn.tigris.org/- and nothing you mention is Tortoise
specific.

i think ur suggestions do formulate my problem.now since i know some
commands i wanted to know how can i execute cvs commands from python
or we can say how can i capture the output from the cvs command ?.

Use the subprocess module
<http://docs.python.org/lib/module-subprocess.html>

pycvsexe = r"c:\Archivos de programa\CVSNT\cvs.exe"
pyimport subprocess
pyp = subprocess.Popen([cvsexe, "status", "dinglob.pas"],
stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
pyoutput = p.communicate()[0]
pyprint output
