and then comes the diff output proper.

Those are simply files that the CVS repository doesn't know about. They shouldn't cause any problems with the patch, but you can always edit them out if you want.

I know that. I still would like to have them listed. It is useful to know which new files we have that we forgot to add (cvs add file) or which file we have that we don't intend to commit.

So, the question remains: how can I configure CVS so that those files are listed at the top of the patch, just like they are with Drupal CVS?

Thanks,

Augustin.
