I don't think any of the Fedora infrastructure uses branches in the 
traditional way that would cause -A to end up switching branches.  If, 
however -A blows away for example -ko or -kb settings from the repository, 
then it's actively harmful (I don't think it does, though).  It will also 
interfere with working on traditional branches if one creates them in Fedora 
CVS, ditto with any other project that uses such branches one might be 
working on.  Personally there's no way I'd want -A for "update" in my .cvsrc.
