We use loginfo here all the time (we have a loginfo script that
collates all the commits together, then sends an email when the last
directory has been sent)... It is probably working :-)

Use 'cvs -t' to see what the script handler is doing. Generally I
found things worked better when the full path was given in the
command.

There shouldn't be a difference.

loginfo only gets called if there are really files to commit.  You can
sometimes get a 'modified' file in WinCVS that isn't really modified,
so a commit will ignore it.
