Question about the command-line for committing

[Reinstein, Shlomo]

Hi,

The "commit" command of CVS has an option, "-m", for specifying a log
message on the command-line instead of interactively using an editor. But
what happens when the commit is recursive and there are files in other
directories that will be committed? Is there a way to specify (on the
command-line) different log messages for different directories?
While this question seems to be irrelevant (why would a user want to specify
different log messages to different directories through the command-line?),
I am interested in this for testing purposes -- I have set up some scripts
to handle commit commands using the "loginfo" and "commitinfo" files in the
repository, and I would like to have an automatic script to test them. One
of my test cases is providing a different log message for each directory,
and if I can't do that from the command-line then this test case has to be
manual (at least partially - I will need to wait for the editor and enter
the log message).

Thanks,
Shlomo
