I have now updated the cvs.dbk file by moving the existing entry that
describes how to keep a checked out copy into the shadow file
description. I also added a note about enabling the function in the
control panel.
No mention of the problem with empty lines though, this must be a
bug...
The new CVS.CHM file will be part of my next InnoSetup CVSNT
installer.
