hmm but devfs might be compulsory :)

This is not a good idea terry
you should do a "cvs diff -c" or similar
on the source tree to get diffs

the trouble with full files is it's TOO EASY to spam
someone else's patches when you over-write the file.

With Patches, you get a .rej file in this case so you can merge the two
changes..

I think it might be an idea to supply your changes in that form..
