  Modified:    .         log_accum.pl commit_prep.pl
  Log:
  RED ALERT! RED ALERT!  Mission control, we have a slight technical
  problem...
  
  No seriously, this is a major revamp of the log scripts in preperation
  for an update to a later version of cvs (ie: 1.9.8)
  
  Among the changes:
    - lots of dead code and useless stuff ripped out
    - lots of things rewritten and/or redesigned
    - support new message format that's passed from cvs to the log
      script so that commits to individual files on branches works.
    - perl5 now *required* due to above (hashes of arrays @{$var${tag}})
    - commit message format slightly changed due to per-file branches
    - new mailing lists (well, from last year) and commitlogs supported,
      eg: cvs-contrib, cvs-tools, etc
    - more space for filenames on each line before wrapping.
    - more intelligent line wrapping, alignment should be better.
    - no more insanely long Subject: lines.
  
  There are more changes in the pipeline, including being able to do a
  partial commit message when cvs is aborted in the middle of a commit,
  but since the diff of the changes is now much larger than the file
  itself, and we need the new cvs support, commit this now.
  
  It's had a fair bit of testing in a private copy of the cvs tree, but
  it's still not all that unlikely that there won't be things I've missed.
