I've integrated the main Mac special features (resource fork handling, 
text encoding conversions) into cvsnt, but I'm a little hesitant to 
entirely switch to cvsnt yet. I'm not sure how well (if at all) it's 
tested on the Mac so far...
Also, there are a couple of issues with cvsnt still requiring to be 
installed in a defined location, but I'd like to keep MacCvs a 
standalone application that does not necessarily require an installer 
to install various pieces in a variety of locations. I do have some 
ideas how to solve this, but haven't yet got around to implement them 
:(
In the long run, it's my goal to use cvsnt instead of cvs-1.10 based 
source (because cvsnt is just _so_ much more maintained ;-), but at the 
moment, I don't think we're quite there yet...

OTOH, MacCvs uses a branch of cvs-1.10 anyway (CVSGUI1112), so maybe we 
can just get rif of it on the main branch? (Not sure whether you can 
remove a subdirectory on the trunk, but keep it on a branch... I guess 
I should know |-: )
