Description Oliver Hunt 2005-11-27 16:12:09 PST 
cvs-create-patch has a couple of irritating flaws
 1. It doesn't handle files/directories that don't exist in the local repository when they are passed as 
arguments
 2. New files don't get the correct path attaached

Okay this fixes problem (2) -- where the correct path is not given for new
files.

Unfortunately I don't know perl so can't be sure it's actually correct -- it
produces the right output though, which i find promising.
