Change cvs -z 3 to cvs -z 0
Huh, why do you think anyone would accept that? A lot of people still use modem links (or even DSL might be troublesome for that matter), so using no compression at all can be considered fatal. For such a strange patch (at least from my point of view), an explanation/justification is sorely missing.
Because cvs -z3 still hangs at the end of any cvs command.
Ah, now THAT is an explanation that gives it a lot of sense...
Well, after it started to hang for me after a WineHQ crash, I changed it to -z0 for once and moved it back to -z9 right after -z0 case succeeded. -z9 still works fine for me under both Linux and win2k.
How about leaving -z3 as is and adding a notice about potential hangs in red letters?
I'm not sure whether we should easily give up on that compression gain...
