I have files with spaces in them (not by choice - InstallShield saves
some project info in files containing spaces in the names), and the only
trouble I've had is spurious messages when doing cvs update from a
parent directory of the directory containing the "spacey file". add,
checkout, and commit work just fine (from the cvs commandline, at
least).
I'm using 1.10.8, but I believe it was working this way with 1.10 as
well.

Are you sure the problem isn't with cvsweb?
