No. I have two trees for each release; one comes from CVSup and is
where I do the development and test stuff. The other one comes from the
SSH backed CVS at postgresql.org. What I do is develop the patch in the
CVSup tree, test it there, and then copy it to the other repo by
diff+patch. What happened here was that I produced the fat-fingered
patch in the CVSup branch, and copied it to the other tree _before_
testing; then I compiled, found that mistake and corrected it but forgot
to copy the correction to the other tree :-(

I don't use the CVS trees directly because it's very slow to get diffs
that way (latency is way too high), and also out of fear of committing
unwanted stuff.
