That URL certainly goes to the CVS instructions.

Did you run configure?  Did you use --enable-depend?  What errors are
you getting?

There is another tutorial that's got a lot more detail than this one at 
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Working_with_CVS which uses rsync to make 
your own copy of the repository instead.

Yesterday I downloaded source code from CVS following

developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/cvs.html

First of all it had problems downloading files, INSTALL text file has not
been downloaded, for example.

 </pre></blockquote> I run:<br /> ./configure --prefix="/usr/local/pgsql/wip/" CFLAGS=-O0 --enable-debug
--enable-cassert--enable-depend<br /> make<br /> make check<br /><br /> It's the usual way I use to build postgres
sourcecode for further installing.<br /> Anyway the problem has been solved downloading from scratch source code from
CVS...maybe I downloaded a corrupted copy of the source code.<br /><br /> Thanks for your time.<br /> Regards,
