Checking out a new branch to local:

1. set repository directory as the CVSROOT
        gunnalag@TestSun2:/u/gunnalag> setenv CVSROOT master.site2:/src/local/repository
2. cd to the required folder. In case if you are updating sub-folder under existing hierarchy.
      Example to add /dev folder under /u/gunnalag/cvs/Windows/software/ folder
      1. just create a temp folder "test"
      2. setenv CVSROOT master.site2:Windows/software
      3. run "cvs checkout dev" or "cvs checkout dev/int" for it’s subfolder
3. then perform the cvs checkout of required module.
       Example: if I want to checkout mail tree from /src/local/repository/Windows/ directory.
       Then 
     cd">gunnalag@TestSun2:/u/gunnalag>cd cvs/proj/
     cvs">gunnalag@master:/u/gunnalag/cvs/Windows>cvs checkout software
     ……..
     gunnalag@master:/u/gunnalag/cvs/proj>
