Could be updated to 2.5.03.2134, but it is the *client* so it is not
really important.

OOps!! You are consulting the wrong list! This is the list for CVSNT
and the server you are operating against is a GNU CVS. This means that
noone here is likely to be able to help you with specific issues....
Upgrade the server to CVSNT 2.5.03.2134 and this changes (and possibly
also your errors will go away).

I don't know about this program, but if you install CVSNT instead you
may use my CVSMailer program in order to notify the admin (and
possibly also your project team) of project changes in cvs. This is of
course if you have your server on Windows... Look here:

In fact the problem you see might actually come from cvsspam when it
gets called from the CVSROOT/loginfo script and receives the thousands
of files as a command line argument...
