For our daily and nightly builds it would be good to use CVS trigger which 
touches a file after a commit. Then only this file would be checked to 
determine if a build is needed.
   
  But this trigger would need to be intelligent. It must only touch the file if 
files with certain extensions have been committed. For example a new build is 
not necessary if someone checks in a Word document. Furthermore we need two 
such touched files, one for the HEAD and one for the release line branch. If 
someone checks into the release line branch, the trigger must not touch the 
file which represents modifications on the HEAD. It must instead only touch the 
file which represents modifications on the release line branch.
   
  Please consider that I am a windows guy and that our CVS server is a Linux 
machine. So it would be nice if you can tell me a example script or something 
which makes it easy to implement this. Thank you very much.
   
  We have to do the whole thing because CVS needs a lot of time to determine 
whether modifications occured. It takes at least 15 Minutes. By just checking 
one file for its touch date, this can be speeded very much.
