I don't actually do any of this (I'm not into formal bug tracking), but here
are some ideas...

It is usually done with the commit comment, as you describe. Another approach
is to create a branch, like "Branch-Bug_123-Fixes", apply the fixes on the
branch, then merge the branch back to the trunk.

The ideal way would be to create a tag before the bug fixes were committed:
$ cvs tag Bugfixes-123-Before
Then commit the fixes...
$ cvs tag Bugfixes-123-Fixed
Then you can apply that set of changes to any branch using...
$ cvs update -j Bugfixes-123-Before -j Bugfixes-123-After

Probably, if you're a clever scripter.

Mark,
Sorry to send you individual email . I post the same question in
info-cvs but no replies.
I am not using any bug tracking tools yet. Can anyone tell me how I can do
the followings?
1. Developer check in ten files related to a bug number into Dev branch,
e.g. bug #123.
2. How can I identify that ten files anytime? Is it based on the comment
that developer made when check in? How else can I do it?
3. How can I apply those ten files very precisely from Dev branch to Trunk
then to another branch?
4. Can I automate these processes?
Please email me directly at address@hidden
Thank you in advance.
Barry
