Isn't there a bug with some CVS clients or servers with the use of ANY -z but 0?
Indeed, for older CVS clients. That's why the patch points out that you need CVS 1.11.5 or greater to use that feature.
However, I think the patch is missing the point. Using one of the CVS servers directly is just too painfull -- the tree is too big for that, comperssion or not (at least in my experience, and I'm connect via a fast cable modem to the net).
We'd better explain how to setup cvsup instead. I've described my setup sometime ago, and Brian included it as a story in WWN, if anyone is interested... ;)
