The history file

The file `$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/history' is used to log information for the history command (see section history--Show status of files and users). This file must be created to turn on logging. This is done automatically if the cvsinit script is used to set up the repository.

The file format of the `history' file is unfortunately not yet documented anywhere, but it is fairly easy to understand most of it.
