You'd use cvs get -r imp project1 or similar. There's plenty of other options you can use, e.g. cvs -qz9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/gcc get -r gcc-3_3-branch -d gcc33 gcc will fetch you a copy of the GCC 3.3 branch into a directory called 'gcc33'. You can get help from cvs itself with cvs --help get or find docs online at http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/. Note that your 'get' is an alias for 'checkout' (as is 'co') so that's the command you should look up. We can probably cope with the basic stuff here but if you've got more complex CVS problems you might do better on a CVS mailing list. Good luck, Rup.
