For +one thing, the CVS 1.9/1.10 behavior never had updated CVS/Root in +subdirectories, and for another, it didn't seem that popular in +general. So this change restores the CVS 1.8 behavior (which is also +the CVS 1.9/1.10 behavior if the environment variable +CVS_IGNORE_REMOTE_ROOT is set; with this change, +CVS_IGNORE_REMOTE_ROOT no longer has any effect). + +* It is now possible for a single CVS command to recurse into several +CVS roots. This includes roots which are located on several servers, +or which are both remote and local. CVS will make connections to as +many servers as necessary. + +* It is now possible to put the CVS lock files in a directory +set by the new LockDir option in CVSROOT/config.
