I just committed some files with the wrong log message
------------------------------------------------------

You don't need to hand-edit anything in the repository to solve this.
Just run admin with the -m flag.  Remember to have no space between -m
and its argument, and to quote the replacement log message as you would
a normal one:

     floss$ cvs admin -m1.17:'I take back what I said about the customer.' hello.c
