What's that? In my understanding you have to login first. Then do one
checkout. The checkout (co) creates a new directory and updates everything
at that time. If you stay in /usr/local 'co pgsql' creates
/usr/local/pgsql. Next day or week you go to /usr/local/pgsql and try
'cvs update -d'. Only the changed files will be updated on your local
disc.
