They are named the same way PostgreSQL named its branches. For example
REL8_2 for PostgreSQL 8.2.

They are available here : http://pgfoundry.org/scm/?group_id=1000064

.../admin/cp-po : ... is the path to the cp-po shell script you get when
you did step 2 ("Check out the admin module").

.../messages : ... is the path to the messages branch you get when you
did step 1 (Check out the messages module...)

.../pgsql : ... is the path to your source dir (same branch as messages)
