What is cvsps
CVSps is a program for generating ‘patchset’ information from a CVS repository. A patchset in this case is defined as a set of changes made to a collection of files, and all committed at the same time (using a single ‘cvs commit’ command). This information is valuable to seeing the big picture of the evolution of a cvs project.
