Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: MAVEN-1006
    Summary: SCM cvs call doesn't function when there are spaces in the path
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Minor

 Time Spent: Unknown
  Remaining: Unknown

    Project: maven
 Components: 
             plugin-changelog
   Versions:
             1.0-rc2

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: Nick Giles

    Created: Wed, 5 Nov 2003 10:36 AM
    Updated: Wed, 5 Nov 2003 10:37 AM
Environment: Win2K SP4, Java 1.4.1, WinCVS 1.3.10.1 (b10)

Description:
When running the changelog report, the CVS executable is not found, depite being on 
the path. The following output is seen:

SCM Working Directory: C:\projects\aProject\WEB-INF
SCM Command Line[0]: cvs
SCM Command Line[1]: -d
SCM Command Line[2]: :sspi:cvsserver.foo.co.uk:F:\CVSRepository
SCM Command Line[3]: log
Unable to find cvs executable. Changelog will be empty

Subsequent investigation found that spaces in the path to the CVS executable were to 
blame, and moving it to a location without spaces resolved the issue. Suggest an entry 
in the FAQ for Changelog in particular, and an update to the entry in the main Maven 
FAQ (which very unhelpfully says to try running the command from the command line, and 
that "The results typically speak for themselves". They don't.).
