white-space & line-ending changes

I have committed some changes to the trunk that clean up 1) tabs, 2) spaces
at end of lines, and 3) CR/LF line endings. These touched quite a few files,
mostly doc, but should have no effect other than to minimize future spurious
deltas. I do not see the auto mail messages coming from CVS related to these
changes -- perhaps it is smart enough to know that these are innocuous, or
perhaps there is something wrong with my mail account. At any rate, I wanted
you to know what was going on when you see the files being updated.

But your commit messages nevertheless are sent only from pietsch@apache.org.
My conclusion was based on a quick analysis of $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/loginfo file 
at cvs.apache.org. This one usually defines an action being performed on each 
commit into a cvs repository. Our one runs $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/log_accum.pl 
script, which in turn (I should admit I'm not perl expert) actually 
consolidates message and sends it to the mail list through sendmail program 
from $ENV{'USER'}@apache.org address.
And if commit messages are always sent from $ENV{'USER'}@apache.org address, 
this one should be subscribed to the list.
May be there is another door though.

The commit was working, and I could even see that it was trying to create a
mail message -- it just wasn't getting mailed.

I followed Oleg's suggestion of switching my subscription to fop-cvs to my
apache.org mailing address & that seems to have fixed the problem. I am not
sure how to reconcile that with your experience -- maybe it just has to be
touched & maybe there is more than one way to do that. I guess I don't care
enough to find out. Thank you both for your help.

BTW, it is good to have you back.

Well, the cvs commit command has to be invoked from within the checked out
tree. Otherwise no commit message is mailed at all.
For example
$pwd
$CWD is /usr/pietsch/gnu/fop
$cvs checkout xml-fop
$...
Change to xml-fop before committing at this place.
$ cd xml-fop
$ cvs commit
No parameters necessary. If the command asks you for a module to commit,
or for logging in again, you made something wrong.
BTW I'm subscribed to fop-cvs with my spam-filtered address and have no
problems.

I had the same problem when I commited for the first time. As far as I 
found out, you have to be subscribed to fop-cvs mail list using your 
*apache email address* + first message may be postponed a little bit by 
moderator (nobody knows who is it though :).
