From: Lin Mac on 3 Jun 2010 15:20 Hi, I'm merging kernel from others, and they used CVS to manage their code, and so do some part of linux kernel. Unfortunatly CVS would substitude the keywords in the source, result in unecessary changes in the code, like the one in the following diff. In fact, there are around 1174 of CVS keywords in the kernel source. I don't want those useless changes to get into my tree. Currently I use the attached scripts to as a basic filter, which could filter out 1-line changes by CVS keyword in a patch. But I still have to handle other cases (multi-line changes, $Log, which would result in log of latest commit) myself. Do you have better idea to get this task done? diff --git a/kernels/linux-2.6.31.1-cavm1/Documentation/cris/README b/kernels/linux-2.6.31.1-cavm1/Documentation/cris/README index d9b0868..c7bb74b 100644 --- a/kernels/linux-2.6.31.1-cavm1/Documentation/cris/README +++ b/kernels/linux-2.6.31.1-cavm1/Documentation/cris/README @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ Linux 2.4 on the CRIS architecture ================================== -$Id: README,v 1.7 2001/04/19 12:38:32 bjornw Exp $ +$Id: README,v 1.1 2010-05-14 09:47:54 XXXXXXXX Exp $ This is a port of Linux 2.4 to Axis Communications ETRAX 100LX embedded network CPU.

But usually it would be faster if I could solve it myself than asking them to release again.
