For CVS if the user requested to `stay-local', this is not quite right
either since it will connect to the server.  Admittedly, there's no way
to get the right answer without connecting to the server, but this
behavior has been with us for years and I usually consider it a feature
(most/all the CVS servers I use are usually remote/slow/unreachable, so
it's important to have control over when VC contacts the server and when
it doesn't).
