[chora] Chora 2.0 CVS annotate function

For those wondering, I found the solution to the problem.

It appears that the annotate function will not work correctly if you
pick a CVSROOT in config/cvsroots.php that isn't an actual CVSROOT:

I.e Don't do the following:

$cvsroots['Project1'] = array(
    'name' => 'CVS',
    'location' => '/usr/local/cvsroot/project1',
    'title' => 'Our CVS Repository for Project1',
    'intro' => 'intro.txt',
    'default' => true
);

Changing 'location' to /usr/local/cvsroot did the trick. :) Perhaps this
caveat should be added into the documentation.

Thanks for your help,
Paul

Thanks for the suggestion, Anil.

I've chmod'ed the CVSROOT/history file to 777, however the issue
persists. FYI, the version output of CVS installed on the server is:

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.1p1 (client/server)

Thanks,
Paul

Annotate can be troublesome - you _may_ have to set
the CVSROOT/history file to mode 777 if you have a picky version of cvs.
