The script will need to find out if there are any updates in CVS.  We
don't want to post a snapshot without actual changes in CVS.
Unfortunately, there is no single commit ID in CVS, so I'll need to
implement an algorithm to calculate it (I think it could be SHA1 of the
sorted list of all files with revisions).

I'm placing the issue on my TODO list.
