I was wondering what strategies do CVS gurus use to manage their
personal collection of dotfiles. We all a favorite .vimrc, .exrc,
.muttrc, ~/.w3m/bookmarks.html, etc. The problem is keeping
them in sync
on all the machines we use. CVS seems like a nice tool for that.

Since win eolns are annoying ;-)
In addition win eolns can confuse some tools I depend on.

Your repository files do have unix-style eol ... it's just that there's a CR
at the end of each line ;)
This will happen un-intentionally if you use a cvs client with no eol
conversion (e.g., the Cygwin port) and stupid editors that munge eol. If
your Windows-hosted developers really need DOS

The CVS_CLIENT_LOG looks good - I'll have to get it set up for when we
