[cvsnt] Re: loginfo is "broken" in build 62

I agree that the loginfo handling is basically OK because in my opinion
noone will ever commit so many changed files in a single directory that
it would choke. But tagging is a different animal completely because here
you are always adviced to tag the complete module every so often and if one
dir in the module contains *many* files it breaks.

I am happy with the present solution,

Bo

I haven't changed the logging script here for months and it's working
fine.  Also the script that feeds cvsnt-commits is the same as the one
that comes with Unix CVS.

I'm not changing loginfo to make it work like taginfo as it'll be a
lot of hard work to rewrite everything.  Taginfo was broken, which
justified the change (I suspect even Unix would have given up after a
few thousand files).
