It represents the /bin/test (see 'man test' on your GNU/Linux box for
more details) command to compare the output of the `id -u` command with
the numeric value of your own id. Otherwise you would never be able to
undo the change to the CVSROOT/commitinfo script and it would be locked
forever.
The ALL means that all possible modules will run this test during the
commit phase.
The ":" command will accept any argument and always return true. This
will stop any warnings that cvs 1.12.x might want to give you for using
the older style format string defaults.
As always, it is recommened that you run tests on a repository other
than your main repository to be sure you understand how things work.
