How can you see if a file is a binary in cvs

Question

I'd like to check if a file was added as binary, but I don't know what to look for in cvs status or cvs log.. any hints?

Answer 1

cvs status -v binaryfile.gif

This will show the status of the binaryfile.gif and the Sticky Options will show -kb if it is a binary file.

Answer 2

Um, my CVS days are long since over (good!), but wasn't it the -kb option what you need to look for? I think cvs status -v will show you this.
