1.3.2. Creating a New Repository
			A CVS repository is a central place to store files and directories that are under revision control, as well as additional data such as a complete history of changes or information about who made those changes and when. A typical CVS repository stores multiple projects in separate subdirectories called modules. When publicly accessible, it allows several developers to create a working copy of any of the modules, make changes, and share these changes with others by committing them back to the repository.
		
Initializing an Empty Repository
			To create a new, empty CVS repository in a directory of your choice, run the following command:
		
cvs -d path init
cvs -d path init
			Note that path must be an absolute path to the directory in which you want to store the repository (for example, 
/var/cvs/). Alternatively, you can specify this path by changing the value of the $CVSROOT environment variable:
		export CVSROOT=path
export CVSROOT=path
			This allows you to omit the path from 
cvs init and other CVS-related commands:
		cvs init
cvs init
Example 1.15. Initializing a new CVS repository
				To create an empty CVS repository in the 
~/cvs/ directory, type:
			export CVSROOT=~/cvs cvs init
~]$ export CVSROOT=~/cvs
~]$ cvs init
Importing Data to a Repository
			To put an existing project under revision control, change to the directory in which the project is stored and run the following command:
		
cvs [-d cvs_repository] import [-m "commit message"] module vendor_tag release_tag
cvs [-d cvs_repository] import [-m "commit message"] module vendor_tag release_tag
			Note that cvs_repository is a path to the CVS repository, module is the subdirectory in which you want to import the project (such as 
project), and vendor_tag and release_tag are vendor and release tags.
		Example 1.16. Importing a project to a CVS repository
				Imagine that the directory with your project has the following contents:
			
ls myproject
~]$ ls myproject
AUTHORS  doc  INSTALL  LICENSE  Makefile  README  src  TODO
				Also imagine that you have an empty CVS repository in 
~/cvs/. To import the project under project in this repository with vendor tag mycompany and release tag init, type:
