Hi,

I've just been looking at commitids in CVS, which look like they might be
very useful. Am I right in saying that if I commit a number of files across
several modules in one go they will all have the same commitid?

One thing that would be useful is to do a diff between a commitid and the
previous versions of each file in question, i.e. to display what was changed
by a commit. As far as I can tell, at the moment, you can only do something
like:

    cvs diff -r @abcxxxxxx -r @xyzxxxxxxx

Is what I want possible?

Cheers,
John
