Why?  Disk space is cheap -- are you sure you want to get rid of all
that history?  Are there text files that are a problem, or is it just
the binary files you're storing in CVS (which many here will tell you
you shouldn't be doing anyway)?

One possible alternative is to just get rid of *some* of
the history by using "cvs admin -o" to consolidate all the changes
between major releases.  If you insist, you can also use it to delete
all of the changes and just keep the most recent version.
