=====Keyword substitution=====
 +
 +
RCS uses a mechanism known as [http://keyword%20substitution http://web.mit.edu/gnu/doc/html/cvs_17.html#SEC73] (or keyword expansion) to help identifying the files. Embedded strings of the form $keyword$ and $keyword:...$ in a file are replaced with strings of the form $keyword:value$ whenever you obtain a new revision of the file. This will lead that your patch won't be well applied any more after strings will be substituted.
 +
 +
If you have patch with strings substituted do
 +
 +
cvs admin -kk <file>
 +
cvs update -dPA
