At commitinfo time, you have access to the server side copy of the files (or the original files if in :local: mode), so it may be possible to whack in changes. Doing so is a very bad idea as it introduces entropy that is not controlled by the user into the process of trying to accurately record the state of files that 'worked' for the user. > How should I do this?

CVS is bright enough not to provide for this kind of lunacy/idiocy. > Is there anyone that has done something like this? Probably, folks have been abusing CVS in ways it was never intended to be used for many years now. This does not make it a good idea.
