Unless you used MacCVS to check out a repository, it refuses to inherit. Kinda stupid and prevents anyone from trying this out with an existing archive... :(
Works for Me - Version: 1.10, 7/31/2006 05:24PM PST

Hey, I dont know much about CVS, but i got it to work fairly quickly (used the help files to get me going).
I dont know how good the program is, but it is the only and easiest solution I've found to get into CVS without having to learn a new technology. I know Mac OSX, and it Worked for me.

DO NOT SAVE YOUR PASSWORD IN PREFERENCES! - Version: 1.9, 10/31/2004 09:13AM PST

IF YOU USE THIS SOFTWARE DO NOT CHECK THE BOX IN PREFERENCES TO SAVE YOUR PASSWORD - IT LEAVES YOUR PASSWORD AT RISK.
The recent "opener" script looks for a preference file created by this software in which your password is stored in CLEAR TEXT. This is incredibly irresponsible on the part of the developer. Apple offers free and complete information on how this software could make use of the keychain to store the password in a secure manner.
See the "opener" script for a list of dozens of other software products that also store passwords outside the keychain - many in clear text. WAKE UP DEVELOPERS!

Far easier for your non-techies to grasp & use cvs. A proper mac application, and works. Cons: yes you do have to re-checkout your projects under the client since it doesnt use the standard CVS/ folders method.
I have to say that the command line environment *is* very confusing for a lot of people who dont have time to learn a load of commands just so they can start doing some work. having to manage various .cvswrappers and .cvsignore files is a nightmare. This application deals with them all in one nice easy to use (and safe!) manor.
Its ace.

You've got all the commands you need in the command line, right? But the GUI gives you quick visual feedback. You can easily see which files need to be committed, for instance. These benefits alone make the GUI nice to have.

I gave up using CVS Clients - winCVS, MacCVS et al.. all of them suck. It took a very short time to learn the CVS CLI commands.. I'm much better off for it too. GUIs are just too inefficient.
Can't get it to work - Version: 1.8, 10/10/2003 01:39PM PST

I've got several CVS projects on my hard drive and MacCVSClient fails to load all of them. Is there some special magic I'm missing here? Perhaps it would work if I checked out the files in MCVSC, but I personally would find that useless. Someone really needs to do a TortoiseCVS (http://tortoisecvs.sf.net) for OS X...
