A trick for making this happen a little faster is to copy a current
version of a working directory (including the CVS directory) to a new
location, do a cvs update, note the modified files, delete them, and
then do a cvs update again.

This should be faster than doing a complete checkout again.

i.e.,

cd /devo
cp -rp winsup winsup-pristine
cd winsup-pristine
cvs update -A `cvs update -A | awk '{print 2}'`

This is what I do when I have to apply or revert patches.
