I made a repository yseterday on my laptop (2.0.5) and the commitinfo file looks like this: # The "commitinfo" file is used to control pre-commit checks. # The filter on the right is invoked with the repository and a list # of files to check. A non-zero exit of the filter program will # cause the commit to be aborted. # # The first entry on a line is a regular expression which is tested # against the directory that the change is being committed to, relative # to the $CVSROOT. For the first match that is found, then the remainder # of the line is the name of the filter to run. # # If the repository name does not match any of the regular expressions in this # file, the "DEFAULT" line is used, if it is specified. # # If the name "ALL" appears as a regular expression it is always used # in addition to the first matching regex or "DEFAULT". /Bo Berglund
