This contains groff-formatted man pages for the CVS revision control
system. CVS is a version control system which allows you to keep old
versions of files (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why
changes occurred, etc., like RCS  or SCCS. Unlike the simpler systems,
CVS does not just operate on one file at a time or one directory at a
time, but operates on hierarchical collections of directories consisting
of version controlled files. CVS helps to manage releases and to control
the concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. CVS allows
triggers to enable/log/control various operations and works well over a
wide area network (see man pages).
