You may be able to do that by passing the right arguments to cvsps.
>From cvsps --help:

  -d <date1> -d <date2> if just one date specified, show
     revisions newer than date1.  If two dates specified,
     show revisions between two dates.
  -b <branch> restrict output to patch sets affecting history of branch
