In addition, you might have a look at cv2cl (CVS to ChangeLog).
http://www.red-bean.com/cvs2cl/
(cvs2cl is typically available as an installable package under Linux.)

These options in particular may help you understand the timing and
impact of a particular branch.

    -F *BRANCH*, --follow *BRANCH*
        Show only revisions on or ancestral to *BRANCH*.

    --follow-only *BRANCH*
        Like --follow, but sub-branches are not followed.

    --no-ancestors
        When using -F, only track changes since the *BRANCH* started.
