Nothing.  The CVS configuration is set up for savannah and
needs a bit of tweaking to check out locally after a mirror.

I commented this line out in CVSROOT/config

LockDir=/var/lock/cvs/sources/simulavr

Savannah's CVS must have some features my Fedora 10 CVS
does not.  I got warnings for two other option variables and
commented them out:
#UserAdminOptions=..
#UseNewInfoFmtStrings=...

I don't particular care which version control system is used as
long as forward progress is being made.  I have swamped by a
non-AVR project and really haven't had time to wade in.
