[cvsnt] Hook for modifying log message on commit?

Hi!

I'm looking for a way of parsing a log message for specific identifiers 
and replace them. E.g. I'd like to convert references to "FS#123" 
(FlySpray bug numbers) to the according url 
"http://myserver.com/?do=details&id=123". This is mainly used in email 
notifications.

Now since I use CVSNT's very own mail support there is no script/hook 
which is run beforehand. veriymsg just checks an incoming message, but 
doesn't alter it.

I know there exist the options -b / -B to assign a commit to a bug 
number, but I can't find a place where this bug number can be given e.g. 
in a Tortoise commit window. Since most of the cvs users operate with 
GUIs rather with the cmdline client (including me, I'm using LinCVS), it 
would be great if the log message could be anyhow parsed / modified on 
the server.

Thanks,
Thomas.
