The recent commit of all the *.license files proved that Eclipse
is the culprit. Until their Bug 15119 is fixed (please vote for it),
the Eclipse users should use the workaround to add the unknown
text types.

The find_binary_text.pl script reports these problems:
.ai
.css
.dtd
.gt
.in
.jar-lincense
.jdo
.jj
.js
.jx
.license
.mod
.pagesheet
.samplesxconf
.svg
.template
.xconf
.xhtml
.xmap
.xmi
.xroles
.xsamples
.xsl
.xslt
.xsp
.xtest
.xweb
.xwelcome

I have IDEA but had not time yet to try its CVS client (...it requires 
to change cvsroot...), so I'm using command line.

FWIW, I use IDEA, and often command-line CVS as well.
The transparency of the command-line makes me feel safer ;-)

Thanks Vadim, yes we know that we can use 'cvs admin' - Joerg and i
have been doing that to manually fix the mess that people create by
using Eclipse in its current state.

I wonder if it is true that almost every committer uses Eclipse?
I use command-line cvs.

Of course, but you *have* to do it as Eclipse uses binary as default and 
not text like the command line cvs client. We never took care about it 
as it probably never was a problem. But since almost everybody seems to 
use Eclipse also for committing and especially adding files we had some 
issues in our CVS.

You know that you can use cvs admin to change keyword substitution, right?
