how interesting. I=E2=80=99ve added a =E2=80=9Ccvs suck=E2=80=9D command to=
 the 1.12 flavour
shipped with MirBSD and Debian (current de-facto =E2=80=9Cupstream=E2=80=9D=
 of GNU
CVS as I seem to be the only one working on it) to download individual
,v files, but that would of course only work if the server supports it.

>Attached is a patch implementing LOGM change against cvs-1.11.23

I=E2=80=99ve looked at it and it=E2=80=99s trivial and probably correct eno=
ugh,
so I=E2=80=99ll patch my 1.12 branch similarily and add to the (in)=E2=80=
=9Csanity=E2=80=9D
testsuite. Then you=E2=80=99ll only have to convince the OpenCVS maintainer=
s
to adapt (if it still exists, that is, haven=E2=80=99t checked) and everyon=
e
is compatible.

Thanks,
