For the record, CVS was originally developed on Unix.  It was eventually
ported to Windows and the code incorporated into the standard
distribution.  However, none of the people who did the original port are
currently involved in the project, and none of the CVS maintainers (to
my knowledge) regularly run Windows, so you can, perhaps, understand our
problem.
