Bad excuse. Now if you said you don't know C at all, that'd be reasonable.

> But if I had to, using CVS would be the most annoying thing.

There's freshbsd, cgit on anoncvs, probably a git repo or two on github. You don't need to touch CVS to view the code and diffs. Blaming the VCS that much is a bunch of lazy excuses. Yes, CVS has its shortcomings. No it doesn't make code review difficult.

I'm not blaming CVS as an excuse, because as I said, I didn't plan to review it anyway.

It does make code review difficult, for all the reasons I gave. And I've seen several people who try review it complain about that too.
