There is a bug with the times that is described in CVS NT "readme" file:
The citation: "NT has a bug whereby its idea of GMT as returned by stat() is off by one hour during DST. This causes all files views in WinCVS to become 'modified' whenever the DST threshold is crossed." We are aware of this problem and there always has been a patch in our code that addresses the issue: if the file's timestamp and the timestamp recorded in CVS/Entries files are off by _exactly_ one hour, the file is not considered modified. The patch is still there and it seems to work, because I cannot reproduce the problem: all the files are colored as they should. I suspect the problem has something to do with the timezones as someone mentioned, but this is still just a guess. Please try to invoke "update" command with "-C" additional option on the file that is wrongly colored: this will replace the local file with the latest version from the server _and_ should touch both timestamps. Is the file still colored in blue?
