I, for one, dislike extra stuff showing up when doing a CVS checkout - I am a control freak, and like to know exactly what is getting updated, why, and when. However, doing a "cvs update" in the neooffice repository shows a bunch of files that shouldn't be showing up.
I have added a .cvsignore file in my neojava directory with the following entries:
Code:
OOo_2.0.2_src.tar.gz
build
build.*
That keeps all the build target files from showing up when doing an update. It might not be a bad idea to have a .cvsignore file checked into the repository with those entries (and maybe more?) so that it's a bit cleaner for all.
Also - just as a tip - on Mac OS, since it creates all the .DS_Store files, I have placed in my ~/.cvsignore file an entry for ".DS_Store" - because those show up all over the place over time.

I can see if you're doing top level cvs updates that you'd definitely see a lot of the "?" entries. I don't see them as often as I tend to be working within the modules themselves. Within each module you should see a "?" entry for each unxmacxp.pro directory (object file output) as well as each subdirectory that is not overridden by the neo code (e.g. that is a symlink back into build) and, if within an overridden subdirectory, each subsequent file or subdirectory that is not overridden and is a symlink. I haven't bothered with cvsignores since it can be a bear to maintain them in the submodules and try to list all of the subfiles and the like
