Oh, you won't get any argument from me here...

Like I said, I have no qualms with anything you said.  I personally 
think CVS is truly one of the greatest pieces of software, however, 
trying to convince others that have never used it before, that suddenly 
attribute all their problems to it, is difficult and I need reasons.  I 
can't just simply say ``you screwed up.''  I know it's due to human 
error, but need to make others see this light. :-)

I understand how CVS works for the most part since I have used RCS, 
diff and friends quite extensively, but haven't ever encountered this 
situation in my usage (maybe that's because I know how to use it) of 
CVS.
