But WinCVS does have something that TortoiseCVS doesn't. Flat Mode being
able to see all the change files in a whole source tree in one place is
a very useful thing. Stops that whole forgetting to check one crucial
file in business.
Something that just showed a list of all the changed files in the whole
tree would be a good way to go IMHO. Do people really care about a the
changes in a single dir?
