4.3. Multiple repositories

In some situations it is a good idea to have more than one repository, for instance if you have two development groups that work on separate projects without sharing any code. All you have to do to have several repositories is to specify the appropriate repository, using the CVSROOT environment variable, the `-d' option to cvs, or (once you have checked out a working directories) by simply allowing cvs to use the repository that was used to check out the working directory (see Repository).

Notwithstanding, it can be confusing to have two or more repositories.

None of the examples in this manual show multiple repositories.
