See src/TODO #215 and #231
| 215. Add reditors and rwatchers commands.
|
| - Is an r* command abstraction layer possible here for the commands
| where this makes sense? Would it be simpler? It seems to me the
| major operational differences lie in the file list construction.
...
| 231. The `cvs watch off' command needs an extension which enables users in
the
| cvsadmin group to turn watch off for users whose logins and email address may
| not exist anymore.
