title: How to get cvs log of commits without checking out repo
body: <p>I want to get a list of all commits for a module in cvs without checking that module out. Is this possible? If so how?</p>
  
  <p>I can use the cvs log command like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>cvs log &gt; commitlog.txt
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but this only appears to work for already checked out module that i'm running the command from. I want to be able to get the log for a module without having to check it out.</p>
