It is telling you that the ChangeLog file has been changed at the
repository (by somebody else committing a change) since you last did a
'cvs update'. So you need to 'cvs update ChangeLog' first , fix any
conflicts (because you changed the top of the file, as did the previous
committer, CVS will become confused about which order the changes should
go in -- it is pretty easy to fix by hand, though) and then commit your
changes.
