The default date format changed in 1.12.x to use ISO date format by default. In the Debian package I've added an option to keep using the old date format. Add the following to $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/config: # For the new CVS version 1.12 turn log dates back to the old format DateFormat=old if you'd prefer that. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
