It's -kv, not '-ko'. '-kv' removes the keyword (and the bracketing
$$) and leaves only the value.
Your files will end up looking like this:
* Since $Revision: $: still working
* Since 1.24: ladidda badabba
* Since 1.23: tamtidelam
and you have to be *very* careful with the spelling of '$Revision: $'
when you add a new line in the file you're editing. I recommend
ending it with a colon and space before the dollar, as above, so
you can verify the presence of the keyword with the RCS command 'ident'
before you commit into cvs. Maybe even in a commitinfo script !
