$cvs commit
and
$cvs ci

commits (or check in, that's the same) all modified files.

$cvs commit filename
and
$cvs ci filename

commit only the file 'filename'. of course you can specify several files 
on one command. Usually you should use the option '-m' as well, to 
describe in a few words what you changed:

$cvs ci -m "added function do_that()" my_class.cpp my_class.h

will commit the changes in the files my_class.cpp and my_class.h, with 
the notice what you changed in these files. For the documentation it 
will more look like

$cvs ci -m "added chapter about filters" userguide.tex
