Yup, it's part of the CVS handshake protocol.
cvs/src/server.c:
/* The Authentication Protocol. Client sends:
*
* BEGIN AUTH REQUEST\n
* <REPOSITORY>\n
* <USERNAME>\n
* <PASSWORD>\n
* END AUTH REQUEST\n
*
* Server uses above information to authenticate, then sends
*
* I LOVE YOU\n
*
* if it grants access, else
*
* I HATE YOU\n
*
* if it denies access (and it exits if denying).
... etc.
