Just clicking the "download" link should result it being sent as
text/html assuming you have it configured so in cvsweb.conf (which is by
default set up to do that).  See for example the *.html files at
http://cvs.fedora.us/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/docs/

Which version of cvsweb are you running?

That doesn't make much sense for files other than HTML.
