Sorry to ask you for cooperation.

If you do
$ cvs -z3 checkout blender
We have no way to selectively check out.
The nature of the distribution of the undesired files make it unmanagable
at present.

It requires to do something like
$ cvs -z3 -n co blender
process what you do not want,
and you end up doing cvs update on evry desired files in repository,
that is in by opposition to cvs update directory.

$ cvs cvs_options command cvs_options blender
by default any cvs_options will check out all the undesired
directory and files.

That is, you can not do
$ cvs -z3 update -PAd blender
This is killing prune, and branch development.

with
$ cvs -z3 update blender
We are still vulnerable to newly commited directory or files.
It is where, I would like more comprehension.

why is it required
Peoples outside linux do not care about committing files
with executable file flags turn on for user, group, and world.
No mechanism exist to verify content and behavior of
most of the commited files.

The cvs repository is not ignoring the file .cvsignore
on cvs update command.

for linux, this is
$ find -name \.cvsignore
