It appears ViewCVS has problems with filenames composed of
whitespaces. I think the problem is in 'loginfo-handler'. More
specifically the following block of code:
def ProcessLoginfo(repository, stdin_list):
## XXX This is a somewhat dirty hack:
## cvsdb already loads the configuration file and provides a cfg
## instance. Pick it from there in order to be able to pass it down
## to rlog (see below).
cfg = cvsdb.cfg ## the first line in stdin is a space-separated list; the first
## item in the list is the directory path being updated this run;
## the rest of the items are the files being updated
list = string.split(stdin_list[0])
Is this a bug in ViewCVS or CVS itself? Did the CVS designers no
envision whitespaces in filenames?
Any insight much appreciated. Thanks.

Here is my use case:
I was trying to remove a file named 'OSD Design.doc' and cvsdb attempts
to find Attic/Design.doc,v instead of 'Attic/OSD Desgin.doc,v'.
cvs commit -m "no message" "OSD Design.doc" (in directory
C:\builds\main\doc)
**** Access allowed: Sufficient Priviledges.
Removing OSD Design.doc;
/cvsroot/doc/OSD Design.doc,v <-- OSD Design.doc
new revision: delete; previous revision: 1.7
done
