You might want to look at cvsupchk which is a part of the cvsup
package. It's in the installation tree in
/usr/ports/net/cvsup/work/cvsup-snap-16.1e/contrib, but i not
installed. (If you do a 'make clean', you will need to do a 'make
extract' to get the files back. It is written in python, so the python
port must be installed.
