Uhm, it's several years now, but I had a co-worker who apparently
wasn't able to browse the entire source looking for conflict markers,
and a few times he commited an half-resolved version of the
file... Lately I'm using CVS mostly through WinCVS (:-/), and iirc it,
or maybe it is the newest CVS, do recognize this case, and prevents
the commit to take place. And the only way is grepping for conflict
markers...

ciao, lele.
