I've tried to commit the file you sent me, but I get the
same error. So I searched around on Savannah for a bit and
found this:

 | We do not allow projects' CVSROOT/ directories to be

From: 
<https://savannah.gnu.org/faq/?group_id=5802&question=Is_it_possible_to_receive_an_email_for_each_commit_on_the_CVS_repository.txt>.

Clearly the contact instructions above are meant for those
who want their commit logs e-mail to them, but if one asks
them nicely I'd guess they'd modify the "modules" file too.

It's a shame Savannah disabled commits to CVSROOT, though, I
hadn't known that either.
