CVS asking for one log message per directory with file changes

[Jeff Pream]

All,

 

Using cvs 1.12.12 I have created a repository in my home directory so that I can work on some trigger script issues while not messing with a project repository.   With the local repository, when I commit changes from multiple directories, CVS sequentially asks (pops open vi) for a log message for each directory that had file changes.

 

Is there something I need to do to get CVS to commit all changes regardless of directory using one message entered from an editor?

 

I have never seen this before, but I’ve only used pserver authentication before this (if that should make any difference).  This behavior is blocking an issue I was seeing in our project repository (also using 1.12.12) which I will probably post about separately.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

 

Jeff
