*sigh* - took me a while to recognize that it's actually the commandline
in the docs(anoncvs config is fine) that are resulting in that problem -
we recommend -C as an rsync parameter and the docs for that state:
-C, --cvs-exclude This is a useful shorthand for excluding a broad range
of files that you often don't want to transfer between systems.
It uses the same algorithm that CVS uses to determine if a file
should be ignored.
The exclude list is initialized to:
RCS SCCS CVS CVS.adm RCSLOG cvslog.* tags TAGS .make.state
.nse_depinfo*~ #* .#* ,* _$* *$
*.old *.bak *.BAK *.orig *.rej .del-* *.a *.olb *.o *.obj *.so *.exe *.Z *.elc
*.lncore .svn/
so this is actually a documentation bug - not an infrastructure bug :-)
