[Xorg] CVS warnings at commit...

[Brian Paul]

Well, I've been tinkering with the CVS admin files but can't get 
things to work quite right.

I got rid of the message:  "Appending defaults (" %r/%p %s"), but 
please be aware that this usage is deprecated." by adding the %r/%p %s 
parameters in the commitinfo file."

Next, I tried to fix the warning:  "cvs commit: Using deprecated info 
format strings.  Convert your scripts to use the new argument format 
and remove '1's from your info file format strings."

I added UseNewInfoFmtStrings=yes to the config file.

In loginfo, it looks like the %s was causing trouble.  If I remove it 
entirely or use %{s} or %s then no commit message is sent to the 
mailer.  The only way I can get the mail message to go out is if I use 
%1s.  But then I get the warning: "cvs commit: Using deprecated info 
format strings.  Convert your scripts to use the new argument format 
and remove '1's from your info file format strings."

Any ideas?

In what way do I have to update checkoutlist?
