Starting a project with CVS

Since CVS 1.x is bad at renaming files and moving them between directories, the first thing you do when you start a new project should be to think through your file organization. It is not impossible--just awkward--to rename or move files in CVS 1.x. See section Moving and renaming files.

What to do next depends on the situation at hand.

• Setting up the files: Getting the files into the repository
