Hi all,

Attached patch removes the leading and trailing newlines that the  
cvsserver command adds to commit messages for "cvs log".

  git-cvsserver.perl |    4 +++-
  1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)

Another note: For every commit, cvsserver claims lines changed are "+2  
-3" as hard-coded values no matter what, but that's a fix for another  
day. ;)

Thanks,
Fredrik
