Just looking at the two mailing list - cvsnt and info-cvs I can see lot
more people in distressed about CVSNT stability. And I am biased against
Windows as a stable platform compared to Linux.
Many of the 3rd party/commercial tools are better supported on CVS
than CVSNT imho.
Peformance wise

My other question is how do i rebuild the files that have been updated

I've got some difficulty in understanding how to tag dead revisions
such that branch merges will work.
Consider this:
Initial state (version, tag):
1.3 LAST_MERGED
1.4 REL_1
Now merge on some branch:
cd branch...
cvs up -j LAST_MERGED -j REL_1
cvs rtag -F -r REL_1

However, I'm curious why CVS had to resort to using the EmptyDir for this
