cvs -n -q update
display file status in a more brief format
The‘-n’option means to not actually do the update, but merely to display statuses.
The‘-q’option avoids printing the name of each directory.

In the output message:
            ? filename                          [the file is not in cvs] 
            M filename                         [the local copy of the file has been modified] 
            A filename                          [the file has been added to CVS but not commited] 
            U filename                          [the local copy is old] 
            C filename                          [a conflict of modifications has occurred and the file needs correcting]


cvs update -d
This will update all files changed.
The "-d" option has the effect that new directories in the repository will also be created locally.
