"cvs diff" makes afaik a network connection, which makes it very slow compared

Modern vcs requires additional space for this operation.
And second, I doubt in usefull status of this feature. IMHO, in practice (another
words 'very often') you need to make diff between vcs' *.spec and current.
You just make copy *.spec to *.spec.orig and use simple diff command.
Well, in practice, I sometimes need a whole patchset from some old history of
the specfile. This is practically impossible with cvs, so I keep a git mirror
of the entire cvs directory, anyway.
If you run cvsweb (now viewvc) on the cvs repository it is easy to
cherry-pick any file/revision you want or diff between any committed
versions through the browser interface.
