  Modified:    gnu/usr.bin/cvs/contrib easy-import.perl
  Log:
  Made this script a bit more fool-proof, so people like me can better
  use it. :-)
  
  It now explicitly requires the specification of a directory to import
  from, either as an argument to the script, or by asking the user about
  it.  (Previously, it implicitly used `.', like cvs import does.)
  
  Also implemented an option `-n', which does essentially the same like
  the overall CVS option `-n': show only what would have been done,
  don't do any commitment.  Note that since the modules' database is
  checked out in place (and not commited back), it will erroneously be
  reported as to be imported, too:
  
  cvs import: Importing /home/ncvs/ports/foobar/foo/modules
  I ports/foobar/foo/modules/CVS
  N ports/foobar/foo/modules/modules
  
  This is an unwanted side-effect, but gives the user the option to see
  if the `ed' magic did the right thing when editing modules/modules.
  
  Rod, can you please check the function ``checktag'' in the script if it
  will be restritctive enough?
