Greetings all, Here's a short summary of how to update the log or check-in time comments on files already committed in the CVS repository. It is useful in cases when one would like to update just the file log without having to create new file revision. I found this at the following link: http://www.andamooka.org/reader.pl?pgid=cvsbookmain_78
Command: $ cvs admin -m <file_revision_to_update>:"Your updated log message" <file_name> e.g. $ cvs admin -m 1.12:"This is my new comment for revision 1.12 of file test.pl" test.pl Although the command name is 'admin', it can be run by anyone who has write privileges on a project, unless default permission settings have been changed. Since the command requires a specific revision number of the file to modify, it only accepts one file at a time. For multiple files, the command has to be executed multiple times with the required revision number the name of the file to update. The command does not generate *any* revision history, directly overwrites any previous log / comments. So it should be used with care.
