Checking in a Project for the First Time

I'm not sure how you're really supposed to do this. The best method I've seen is:

1. Check out the root using the -l flag (so you don't have to get everything from the repository):

   cvs checkout -d -l .

2. Create a new directory in that working directory:

   mkdir myproject

3. Add and commit it:

   cvs add myproject
   cvs commit -m "Add new project for..." myproject

There's also cvs import... but that's more for importing code from an outside vendor, that you don't intend to modify (except for upgrading it). It's also tricky and probably not what you want.
