Not to my knowledge, but keep asking and one day we might read one :-)

I have a short read me on my homepage (http://kromann.info/php4.php). It
uses the command line version of CVS (as included with WinCVS). I'll make
a not to write a config section as well.

Most of PHP is based on Unix&Linux version of CVS. If you know CVS it is
not too difficult to translate it into the config of WinCVS.

On cvs.php.net we have php4, Zend, TSRM and ZendEngine2. When checking out
PHP4 you get a copy of php4, Zend and TSRM. With php5 you get php4, TSRM
and ZendEngine2 (in Zend). This is handled by a module wrapper on the cvs
server.
