Only by modifying the location where CVS looks for the repository,
i.e. by modifying the CVS/Root file in the current directory plus the
file of the same name in any subdirectories.  And then when you want
to do a commit/add/remove operation, you'd have to change all the
files back.  There is a script, I think in the jhbuild/tools section
if you're interested, but it's probably a bad choice.  ssh-agent and
ssh-add, as suggested by Ross, are much better for what you want.
