What happened instead -- did you get a different editor, were you
prompted to enter a log message, or did it just complete without any
prompt at all?  It's possible that there's a default message or a
different editor specified in your ~/.cvsrc file.  It's also possible
that there's a $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/editinfo file that specifies a different
editor.
