I was just thinking about this.  Mostly because a per-file commit takes
a lot of time.  Although I don't know if doing a directory commit is
actually faster (internet speed is unpredictable, hard to get reliable
statistics).

Since Aap leaves the checking of changes to CVS, running CVS directly is
probably the simplest solution:

	:sys cvs commit

Is there any drawback to doing it this way?  I think this is portable
and works on all systems (so long as it has a cvs command, of course).
You can add any other cvs arguments you may want to use (if you can
figure out which ones you need, there are many).

If your only trouble is the comment, you can set $LOGENTRY:

	LOGENTRY = updated for version $Version
