In general, a single log message appears multiple times, namely in every CV=
S file that was changed in that commit. By this point in the conversion the=
 commit messages have been converted into unique tokens, so it would take a=
 scan through the whole list of commits to provide the information that you=
 are asking for (i.e. it is doable but not trivial or cheap).

But it's pretty easy for you to find the files yourself: CVS "*,v" files ar=
e in text format. So just grep through your repo for a distinctive string i=
n the message.

Hope that helps,
Michael
