You can change the option easily enough, as others have said.

But be warned: although changing it will cause $Log$ entries to
be added for *future* commits, it will *not* magically go back
and insert entries for commits were done while the file was set
to -kb.

Before using $Log$, though, please read this:
        http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_12.html#SEC103

The general consensus is that $Log$ causes *far* more headaches
than it solves, and my own experience bears that out!

My Wine works.  However it crashes about half the time on startup.
Apparently their simulation of windoze API is getting too accurate.  :)
