david2008 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi all,

I began to use the nice module cvs http://search.cpan.org/~rsoliv/Cvs-0.07/lib/Cvs.pm.
I tried to find an option for cvs update -j, but did not find it.
Does anyone know how to make it with this module?
Alternatively, does anyone know another module, he worked with and makes the job ?

BR,
David

    Cvs::Simple might work better for you. For update, I tried 
    #!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Cvs::Simple;

my ($cvs) = Cvs::Simple->new();

my $old = '/cvs-test';
my $new = '/cvs-test2';
$cvs->merge($old, $new, 'new_filename');

#my $result = $cvs->update();

    Note $cvs->update(): should probably be used with callbacks.

    If you can't get a module to do what you want, you could just use system: 
    system 'cvs update -j' and die "Error: $?";
