Eclipse CVS Client Notes
------------------------
To get a checkout with the Eclipse CVS client:
1. Create a new project from CVS checkout, giving it repository and module
2. Context Menu->Team->Share Project...
3. Enter the repository and module information again and click Finish
4. The Synchronize view appears. Untick "launch commit wizard" to avoid
committing the .project file, and select HEAD as the tag to synchronize to.
Update all incoming changes.
Note that most versions of Eclipse ignore CVS_SERVER (which you can set in
the Preferences->Team->CVS->ExtConnection pane), so you may have to
rename, alias or symlink git-cvsserver to 'cvs' on the server.
