Hi,

I'm merging kernel from others, and they used CVS to manage their
code, and so do some part of linux kernel. Unfortunatly CVS would
substitude the keywords in the source, result in unecessary changes in
the code, like the one in the following diff. In fact, there are
around 1174 of CVS keywords in the kernel source. I don't want those
useless changes to get into my tree.

Currently I use the attached scripts to as a basic filter, which could
filter out 1-line changes by CVS keyword in a patch. But I still have
to handle other cases (multi-line changes, $Log, which would result in
log of latest commit) myself.

Do you have better idea to get this task done?
