I'm curious why you think so.  What kind of settings do you put in ~/.cvsrc?
The nature of the ~/.cvsrc file is to contain settings which should
basically always apply.

I can't believe you'd spend so much time on this thread only for the -c/-u
thingy with `cvs diff'.  BTW, I consider it a bug in CVS that it complains
when ~/.cvsrc says -u but the command line says -c (or vice-versa): the
command line arg should take precedence.
