Have you considered wrapping the tool in a script that replaces the
remark with a constant string?

I have some genereated source-files that I need to have in the cvs
(**  Yes i know that some of you here do not like that generated stuff 
gets put into the cvs-system, but due to the fact that some persons with 
access to this project is not allowed to use (or cannot execute) the 
generator the generated source files need to be in the cvs, this is how 
we do it, and how we will do it in the future, so do not flame me for 
this **) the problem I have is that these files often gets generated 
when there is nothing changed to them (it is part of some compilation 
sections) what happens is that I get new generated files that has only 
one difference, a remark in the file telling when it was generated..

What I wonder now, is is there anything i can do to this row so that cvs 
does not see that the file has been changed, is there any cvs-tag for this?

Since I do not wich to have xxx revisions of the same file where 90% of 
them is just this change in remark..
