 A.17.2 rdiff examples
 ---------------------
 
 Suppose you receive mail from foo@example.net asking for an update from
 release 1.2 to 1.4 of the tc compiler.  You have no such patches on
 hand, but with CVS that can easily be fixed with a command such as this:
 
      $ cvs rdiff -c -r FOO1_2 -r FOO1_4 tc | \
      $$ Mail -s 'The patches you asked for' foo@example.net
 
    Suppose you have made release 1.3, and forked a branch called
 `R_1_3fix' for bug fixes.  `R_1_3_1' corresponds to release 1.3.1,
 which was made some time ago.  Now, you want to see how much
 development has been done on the branch.  This command can be used:
 
      $ cvs patch -s -r R_1_3_1 -r R_1_3fix module-name
      cvs rdiff: Diffing module-name
      File ChangeLog,v changed from revision 1.52.2.5 to 1.52.2.6
      File foo.c,v changed from revision 1.52.2.3 to 1.52.2.4
      File bar.h,v changed from revision 1.29.2.1 to 1.2
