:>     Would you like to undertake that job?  I don't think it would be too
:>     difficult but for obvious reasons we can't just generate one big
:>     (multi-thousand-character-long) URL.  Browser's have limits to what
:>     they will allow.  What we want to do is to somehow reference the
:>     history file itself (e.g. /cvs/CVSROOT/history) by the transaction ID
:>     and then have a program get the file list from the history file.

:oh, I didn't know we had transaction ids... that's cool!

    Yup.  But I'm not sure if the ID is available to the commit prep
    scripts that generate the email.
