My machines get their source code from a local CVS mirror of the FreeBSD source tree, which is at /home/cvs/freebsd/src.. we have our own CVSROOT stuff of course. So when stuff is checked out of the freebsd/* repostitories, the $FreeBSD$ tags don't get substituted correctly. This causes mergemaster to list a zillion files as having differences in only this string every upgrade.. even worse, mergemaster in some cases seems to be comparing only the $FreeBSD$ strings and incorrectly concluding that certain files don't need upgrading, when in fact they do. So.. what stuff in /home/cvs/CVSROOT can I change so that sources in freebsd/* get $FreeBSD$ substitution, but other sources get the normal $Id$ substitution? Surely someone has solved this already.. ?
