Producing html documentation of repository revisions

[dambk]

I am attempting to produce html documentation to review the revisions of a
project I have written. The tools I have found include cvs2html, makeinfo
and texi2html. There is reference to a .texi file that is an input to this
process but I don't appear to have one produced automatically?

[1] Which of the tools listed above (or absent) is the preferred tool for
this task?
[2] How do I produce the required .texi file for the repository?

Many thanks.

I do not know which might be the "preferred tool for [converting cvs logs to html] " but My
preferred tool for converting cvs logs to something a human can really use is cvs2cl[1].
Folks have also made dtd, schema, and stylesheets for cvs2cl's xml output, the first example one[2]
looks OK to me and was apparently generated with a bash script[3].
You'll probably need to download more than I have pointed directly at [2,3] from the home page [1].

or the python version of it cvs2cl.py that is included in CVSNT (Which IIRC is included in WinCVS)
