Package: cvsps
Version: 2.1-2
Severity: normal
On some cvs servers you can't get an rlog for the repository root
because some internal assertion fails on the server side when /./ is
present on the path. However, if you use // it works fine. The
attached patch makes cvsps use an empty path ("") instead of "."
which makes it work on such servers.
