Like it says in the manual:

        Unlike many of the files in `$CVSROOT/CVSROOT', it is normal to
        edit the `passwd' file in-place, rather than via CVS. This is
        because of the possible security risks of having the `passwd'
        file checked out to people's working copies. If you do want to
        include the `passwd' file in checkouts of `$CVSROOT/CVSROOT',
        see The checkoutlist file. 

The users file works the same way.
