Do a "cvs export" instead:

        export Prepare copies of a set of source files for shipment  off 
  site.
               Differs from `cvs checkout' in that no cvs administrative 
direc-
               tories are created (and therefore `cvs commit'  cannot  
be  exe-
               cuted  from  a directory prepared with `cvs export'), and 
a sym-
               bolic tag must be specified.  (Does not change 
repository;  cre-
               ates directory similar to working directories).
