You have failed to notice that the loginfo script is called once for
*every* folder in the committed tree. That is to say that CVS
processes *one* folder at a time on the server even though you are
recursing down the folder tree on the client.
So you have to set up your script to be able to handle this situation,
namely that it will get simultaneous (almost) calls one from each
directory and you must solve the concurrency problem in your
scripting.
This was one of the main headaches when I developed CVSMailer so that
I could get one single email on a commit no matter how many folders
the commit processed.
You have to get back to the drawing board.
And NO this is not a bug, it is the way CVS works.
