I think you can make a module alias. So in module files you make:
boost spirit/boost
libs spirit/libs
Then you could do
cvs co libs or cvs co boost instead of what you have below and it would
create those directories.
Here is the 'official word'
http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html#The_modules_File
I can NOT stress enough this book is your friend. It is really a
plethora of information on CVS and its available online and in a
multitude of formats. I strongly suggest if you start beating on CVS as
a user or administrator you download a copy for reference. Plus Karl is
a good guy, so if you like it buy the book and encourage him to write
more good works. :)
