No.  It probably should be, but there are a number of implementation
details that make it very difficult to support and no one has ever done
so.  The workaround is to cd to the appropriate directory before doing
the commit:

	(cd /test/path2/project-details/CompiledJars &&
	 cvs -d $cvs.root commit -m "no message" environments.jar)
