The model for our CVS log messages is based on the FreeBSD/NetBSD/OpenBSD model. Including all the diffs is going to add too much overhead to the mailing list. Typically people want to follow what kind of changes are happening (based on the commit messages), and only if they care about the implemenation details they run "cvs diff". Personally I do "cvs diff" for every changed file and I still rather do it by hand instead of reading a potentially very long email. If you'd like I can send you the simple but unpolished shell script that prints the last cvs diff for a file. Nothing fancy but it does the job.
