There are many ways that this can be achieved with CVS. One of the
administrative files "commitinfo" allows you to execute a script when the
commit operation occurs. This is a "pre-commit" trigger. You could
implement some sort of function to validate the files prior to checkin.
Another approach is to checkin on a branch and then merge the branch onto
the main. If the merge and validation test is successful, then commit to
the main. Otherwise, reject the merge request.

It's a lot easier to do two-phase commits in a system designed with this
goal in mind, such as Aegis.
