Re: CVS asking for one log message per directory with file changes

Hi Jeff,

You may wish to use the :fork:/path/to/repository method for your
CVSROOT instead of just /path/to/repository as this will prompt you for
a single log message for the entire commit.

Be advised that cvs 1.12.13 came out because of a security problem in
1.12.12 in the zlib compression library...

See http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/cvs/ for details.
