Can you put your cvs tree on a website and give us the url? 
 
Alternatively, you can send it by mail to me, <address@hidden>, I'll 
update your tree. 
 
For your cvs tree, the easier solution is simply to redownload your CVS 
copy following instruction on your CVS project page. But you can also 
edit CVS/Root and CVS/Repository

Hello, 

A few months ago I started up the Needle programming
language project here on Savannah. Nic Ferrier helped
me import my pre-existing CVS into the Savannah CVS at
that time. However, I was stupid, and didn't change the
cvsroot in my working directory. So for the last three
months or so, all of my changes have been going into my
local repository. 

What I'd like is:

1. Help re-importing my CVS repository into the
Savannah CVS (I'd like to preserve the change history,
if possible)

2. Instructions suitable for a clueless dunce on how to
frob my working directory so that my commits go to the
Savannah CVS.
