this release features the following highlights:

Improved History Dialog. The History dialog displays branches and tags 
more intuitively.

Even better SSH support. It is now very easy to specify additional SSH 
parameters.

Improved performance of recursive folder status. The recursive status of 
a folder can now be cached, if so desired. This greatly improves 
Explorer performance on slower machines.

Better support for multiple monitors and large fonts. This means that 
TortoiseCVS now also works for less-common setups.

Seamless Unix line ending support. TortoiseCVS now automatically detects 
if a sandbox uses Unix or Windows line endings and copes with either case.


The more-or-less full list of changes relative to 1.4.5 is here:
