:
:If you konw how to put '-q' in your ~/.cvsrc file and have it work,
:please share.  This is yet another limitation with CVS -- you can only
:put options that follow a command in ~/.cvsrc.

    You can specify general options to cvs using 'cvs'.  So, for example:

cvs -q
diff -u
update -PTd
checkout -PT

    -q is interesting, and I do have it in the manual page's .cvsrc example
    in a commented-out state.  I think it's useful for experts like us but
    it may create too much confusion to beginners who might wonder why
    their cvs command 'freezes' :-)
