Update of /cvs-repository/CVSROOT
In directory cvs.zope.org:/tmp/cvs-serv12117

Modified Files:
	postcommit_actions 
Log Message:
Getting CVSROOT relative to the SCRIPT_DIR.

Also, some module docstring changes generated for the sake of doing
checkins when exercising the new (zopeorg) repository - turns out
they're worthwhile, worth changing this copy of postcommit_actions as
well.  Ah, the way some progress happens...-)

+"""Apply actions triggered by checkins as dictated by traffic_table.py.
 
-Normal operation is to fork into the background with stderr and stdout
-redirected to append to the file named by the OUTPUT_LOG config var - so
-that the user doesn't have to wait for the checkin message to be collected
-and sent or for the rsync to complete.  (We can't simply fork into the
-background, because clients like emacs VC will hang waiting the close of
-sys.stdin, sys.stderr, sys.stdout, etc. - on the order of minutes.)
+Special provisions to fork into the background, disconnected from tty, so
+the user and (more critically) CVS locks don't wait pending completion of
+notification and other potentially meandering actions.
