Reference manual for the Administrative files
Inside the repository, in the directory
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT, there are a number of
supportive files for cvs. You can use cvs in a limited
fashion without any of them, but if they are set up
properly they can help make life easier.
The most important of these files is the modules
file, which defines the modules inside the repository.
