It really depends on the developer.  If you're just maintaining one or
two directories in the -stable tree, it's easy enough to ask CVS to
give you a list of diffs against -current to see what people have done
on the -trunk.  Others of us who take a more top-level view simply
have to do a "cvs rdiff -kk -u -rRELENG_4 -rHEAD src" and be willing
to peruse over 100MB of diffs in some cases. :)
