activitymail 1.23 If you check in code from from multiple CVS branches at the same time, only the differences from the first listed branch is shown in the difference file. Let say I have a head branch and a tagged branch named xxx264. There is also a file named x.c in the same directory across the two branches. The cvs commit done by cvs commit head/xxx/x.c xxx264/xxx/x.c The difference information and email only show information for the first file. The output below to was edited to remove email addresses and pathnames. $ cvs commit head/xxx/xxx.c xxx264xxx/x.c cvs commit: warning: commitinfo line contains no format strings: "/repository/CVSROOT/activitymail -lg" Appending defaults (" %r/%p %s"), but please be aware that this usage is deprecated. cvs commit: warning: commitinfo line contains no format strings: "/repository/CVSROOT/activitymail -lg" Appending defaults (" %r/%p %s"), but please be aware that this usage is deprecated. /repository/xxx/x.c,v <-- head/xxx/x.c new revision: 1.42; previous revision: 1.41 cvs commit: warning: Set to use deprecated info format strings. Establish compatibility with the new info file format strings (add a temporary '1' in all info files after each '%' which doesn't represent a literal percent) and set UseNewInfoFmtStrings=yes in CVSROOT/config. After that, convert individual command lines and scripts to handle the new format at your leisure.

Thanks for the report. I actually don't have CVS running anymore, so any attempt to fix this issue would likely lead to me breaking something else, since there aren't even any tests. So I'm not going to be able to even try to figure this out. If someone else can, I'd be happy to take a patch. You can get the source here: https://svn.kineticode.com/activitymail/trunk/ And soon I'll be moving it to GitHub: http://github.com/theory/activitymail/tree/ So if you get an error from SVN, it's because I've successfully moved it to GitHub, so go there instead. :-) Best, David
