Annotate command
================

 - Command: cvs annotate [`-flR'] [`-r rev'|`-D date'] FILES ...
     For each file in FILES, print the head revision of the trunk,
     together with information on the last modification for each line.
     For example:

          $ cvs annotate ssfile
          Annotations for ssfile
          ***************
          1.1          (mary     27-Mar-96): ssfile line 1
          1.2          (joe      28-Mar-96): ssfile line 2

     The file `ssfile' currently contains two lines.  The `ssfile line
     1' line was checked in by `mary' on March 27.  Then, on March 28,
     `joe' added a line `ssfile line 2', without modifying the `ssfile
     line 1' line.  This report doesn't tell you anything about lines
     which have been deleted or replaced; you need to use `cvs diff'
     for that (see diff.).


   The options to `cvs annotate' are listed in See Invoking CVS,
and can be used to select the files and revisions to annotate.  The
options are described in more detail in See Common options.
