The backstabbing March-Hare

Heine — Thu, 22/01/2009 - 01:19

If you use the CVSNT free/open source edition to commit to Drupal.org, drop to the command line and check your version with:

cvs --version

CVSNT version 2.5.04 or later inserts advertising in every commit message. Please, either buy a license for the CVSNT Suite, download an older version, or switch to another client.

Update: If you are a masochist and write your commit messages on the commandline, you may work around this issue with cvs -M "message" instead of cvs -m "message".

My apologies for Commit #160834 & Commit #165785.

You can prevent the client putting the advertising in the message by using cvs commit -M "message"

I don't know; I downgraded

I don't know and would love to hear; I downgraded the moment I noticed, as I'm always using cvs commit to invoke an editor when committing.
