[patch #4573] Fix for keyword expansion problem/mis-feature during commit

[Harry Muller]

Follow-up Comment #5, patch #4573 (project cvs):

The behavior implemented by the proposed patch is what I would like for our
CVS deployment. The workarounds you suggest require user discipline
(consistent use of -k* options, for example) and are therefore very
problematic for a large team such as ours (we have our fair share of
relatively inexperienced CVS users)

As Yeturu indicates, a version of the patch which preserves the default
behavior but makes the new behavior available via an option, sounds quite
reasonable. I hope you will reconsider your decision.
