No, that's right..

Normally the bug ID will be set using a 'cvs edit' (combined with 
'unedit -w' when I've used it) prior to changing the files, so commit -b 
is used to commit only those files already marked with that bug.

commit -B will commit all changed files, and mark them as belonging to a 
particular bug, which is the other way of working.
