from repositoryhandler.backends import create_repository
# create a cvs repository for poppler on FreeDesktop
repo = create_repository ('cvs', ':pserver:[email protected]:/cvs/poppler')
# checkout module poppler into /tmp directory from HEAD
repo.checkout ('poppler', '/tmp/')
# update working copy on /tmp from POPPLER_0_5_X branch
repo.update ('/tmp/poppler', rev = 'POPPLER_0_5_X')
# show diff between HEAD and POPPLER_0_5_X branches
diff = repo.diff ('/tmp/poppler', revs = ['HEAD', 'POPPLER_0_5_X'])
print diff
