I am much more familiar with SVN and GIT than CVS. In SVN, I can use svn log and svn diff -r PREV to see the latest committed revision and the difference in source codes from the current vs. previous commits, respectively. Similarly, I use git log and git log -p in GIT, respectively. Today, when I did a cvs up ., I noticed there was some new commits. Can anyone here please tell me what CVS parameters I need to use in order to see the latest committed revision and also the difference in source codes from the latest vs. previous commits.

Use the web interface

Nice, but my preference is to use CVS directly. This way, I can write a simple scripts to do something else.

If you are on linux use the commandline

If you are on windows you can use the graphical interface of TortoiseCVS and WinMerge.

Wow! Looks very interesting that each file has its own revision #. So, is there a way to determine which is current CVS revision of H323Plus after the last commit? The reason I asked this stupid question is because I want to write a small script to package them into a tarball file with a CVS revision #. This way, whenever the script run, it won't overwrite the existing tarball file.

Simply store the packages by date/time. You can also update the CVS to particular date/time.
