I know the subject sounds strange, but my problem is this: I have a CVS
server and I want e-mail to get sent out after a commit.  Therefore, I wrote
a simply Python script that's called from loginfo.  The script reads stdin
and batches off some e-mails.  This works great if you commit from the
server.  However....

When you try to commit from a machine that is NOT the server, it wants to
run the loginfo script locally (e.g. it tries to execute the python script
on the machine you are committing from.)  I want the script to only run on
the server, so I don't have to have a copy of the software on each machine.

Is there an option I need to set in the loginfo file to make the script run
locally to the server and not on client machines?
