Marking it as -kb will certainly prevent the conversion of line endings,
but you also lose merge.
If you are using the CVSNT client (which I assume you are since it's
converting the line endings - the cygwin client wouldn't do that) you
may want to read about the --lf option. There are pros and cons to this
including a potential for repository corruption if you then change the
line endings by editing it with a windows program and committing it
back.
If you are using CVSNT client and CVSNT Server (on linux/windows etc)
then you can just mark the files as having linux/mac/dos or 'automatic'
line endings with -k+L/-k+M/-k+D options.
