Activity Plug-in	Description
Update from CVS	This Workflow Activity takes updates from the CVS repository and applies them to your reference area, usually at the start of a Workflow before other activities are conducted. The Workflow Activity contains fields for the location of the CVS Root, CVS Options, and CVS Update.
Commit to CVS	This Workflow Activity is intended to commit files to the CVS repository, usually at the end of a Workflow after executing a build. The Workflow Activity contains fields for the location of the CVS Root, CVS Options, Commit Message, and Commit Options.
Commit to CVS with Tag	This Workflow Activity is intended to commit files to the CVS repository with a tag name passed to the commit. This Workflow Activity is recommended at the end of executing a build. The Workflow Activity contains fields for the location of the CVS Root, CVS Options, Commit Message, Tag and Commit Options.
CVS Bill of Material Report	This Workflow Activity provides a CVS Bill of Materials report based on the content of the Build Directory after a check-out. If the same Workflow has been run against the same source control module before, this Workflow Activity will also provide a CVS Differences report. This Workflow Activity should be one of the first activities defined in a Workflow because it takes a “snapshot” of the Build Directory for analysis and comparison with other iterations of a Workflow. The Workflow Activity contains fields for many Workflow-specific parameters that are set by default to the corresponding Workflow Activity macros. The only parameter that will typically require attention is the field that indicates whether the Workflow is public or private. Public Workflows need the “–lp” flag; private Workflows take no flag.

Execute Meister Incremental Build with CVS Audit	This Workflow Activity runs an incremental build while auditing all files used in the build, exposing artifacts that are not stored in CVS. When items are found in the CVS repository, they are reported on with the version history. The Workflow Activity contains fields for the Audit Report name, options, targets, and variable settings. Note: You must execute a Meister Build Control File Workflow Activity before this step.
Execute Meister Clean All Build with CVS Audit	This Workflow Activity runs a re-build of all objects while auditing all files used in the build, exposing artifacts that are not stored in CVS. When items are found in the CVS repository, they are reported on with the version history. The Workflow Activity contains fields for the Audit Report name, options, targets, and variable settings. Note: You must execute a Meister Build Control File Workflow Activity before this step.
