The easiest way, if you checked it out of CVS, is to use the "cvs diff"
command.  Type "cvs -H diff" for a summary of the options, but I tend
to use "cvs diff -uN"--the "-u" gives you unified format, and the "-N"
includes files added by "cvs add" but that haven't yet been committed.
If you did have to add a file, there may be a problem, but if you just
modified existing files, this'll be sufficient.  Note that you should
execute the above indicated CVS commands from inside the top level
directory of the source tree.

HTH...
