What I think is causing this is that this developer has flat view on in WinCvs all the time "to see all of his files". Then when he commits instead of WinCvs just sending cvs commit module to the server it lists all the modified files in the tree below where the developer has selected. And since the files are sorted alphabetically the Innosetup script file that happens to start with an A always is listed first if it has been changed. And since the subject of the email is taken from the first loginfo invocation of a series from the same process and the first file handled is this ISS scriptfile I get this misleading subject... Sigh, now I have to dig into the CVSMailer code again and start sorting the calls myself to find which is the shortest in terms of module levels and take the subject from there... /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
