If you want to set up another repository, the easiest
way to get a reasonable set of working administrative
files is to run the cvsinit shell script. It
will set up an empty repository in the directory
defined by the environment variable $CVSROOT.
(cvsinit is careful to never overwrite any
existing files in the repository, so no harm is done if
you run cvsinit on an already set-up
repository. In fact, running it on an already set-up
repository is the best way to update the various
scripts from the `contrib' directory.)
