No, I did not. But what would I ask there? I mean, it was just that, you told me, cvsNT also has the command named 'passwd', which does some more things beside changing the user password; And that, it would be better on my part, if I change command name 'passwd' to something else. So I did it.It seems to me it's better to keep them the same - Windows users will normally be using wincvs/tortoisecvs which both use cvsnt. Those users will send the cvs passwd command... it seems to me that creating an entirely different one will just confuse users.
OTOH I don't see the problem with supporting different feature sets (providing the basic 'change my password' functionality works, and that should be easy enough to arrange).
