Date diff including too much

Hi there. I'm trying to use CVS to get a diff of my project from 6/30/2006. Reading the manpage, I get:

cvs -q diff -r dev -D "2006-06-30"
cvs -q diff -r dev -D "6 days ago"
cvs -q diff -r dev -D "2006/06/30"

as likely things that should give me good results.

However, it tells me that nearly everything in my project has changed, which is obviously not true. (it includes several static library files).

Even

cvs -q diff -r dev -D "2 hours ago"

produces the same results.

Do I have the wrong syntax, or is cvs/diff going haywire on me. BTW, the CVS server is ahead a timezone (one hour).

Thanks.

Richard
