For cvs 1.12.x, use 'cvs -n rls -lR .'
For cvs 1.11.x, use 'cvs -n rlog -R .'

Note: CVSNT also supports the 'rls' command.

If the repository is large, you will find that this will be very
painfully slow and may cause timeouts as the entire directory is
traversed.

Generally, I find that dumping all of the pathnames into a MySQL
database that gets updated a few times a day with the pathnames
is easier on the repository server and a web UI...

        Enjoy!
