+Since @code{www.gnu.org} works through CVS, CVS keywords in your
+manual, such as @code{@w{$}Log$}, need special treatment (even if you
+don't happen to maintain your manual in CVS).
+
+If these keywords end up in the generated output as literal strings,
+they will be expanded.  The most robust way to handle this is to turn
+off keyword expansion for such generated files.  For existing files,
+this is done with:
+
+@example
+cvs admin -ko @var{file1} @var{file2} ...
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+For new files:
+
+@example
+cvs add -ko @var{file1} @var{file2} ...
+@end example
+
+@xref{Keyword substitution,,,cvs,Version Management with CVS}.
+
+In Texinfo source, the recommended way to literally specify a
+``dollar'' keyword is:
+
+@example
+@@w@{$@}Log$
+@end example
+
+The @code{@@w} prevents keyword expansion in the Texinfo source
+itself.  Also, @code{makeinfo} notices the @code{@@w} and generates
+output avoiding the literal keyword string.
