Subject: NOTICE: changes to CVS commit messages

I've made two changes to the CVS commit messages on source-changes:
1) They now contain a list of `cvs rdiff' commands to generate a diff
of the entire commit. E.g.:
To generate a diff of this commit:
cvs rdiff -r0 -r1.1 frobnitz/qux
cvs rdiff -r1.9 -r0 frobnitz/foo
cvs rdiff -r1.9 -r1.10 frobnitz/y/baz
cvs rdiff -r1.5 -r1.6 frobnitz/z/bar
(`-r0' is magic for `the file doesn't exist'. In the first case
this is because it was added; in the second because it was removed.
`cvs rdiff' will generate a diff against an empty file.)
2) White space is no longer removed from the beginning of lines in the
log message.
