The following is my $.02:
I have to appologize for originally adding the $Log$ crap; I claim
inexperience at the time I added those darn things... :-)
Anyway, we went through the same thing at Contigo Software (again, it was my
fault!) but we decided to not remove them all at once. Instead, we decided
that anyone who made a change to a file would be responsible for taking out
the $Log$ stuff. That way, we didn't have to change all files (our software
contained at least an order of magnitude more files than ht://Dig...) but it
would still get done eventually.
I went through a similar excersize with ht://Dig when I reformatted all source
files to use 4 space indents instead of tabs that were assumed to be 4
spaces. (I did this long before the CVS tree was public...)
So, my suggestion would be to *not* go through all files at once, but instead
do it incrementally.
