    You can check out from a Windows box directly. WinCVS works fine for
    this purpose. It's setup and making it use an SSH key is always a bit
    confusing for me, but that's because of my little experience with
    Windows software. It can be done though...

    True. But it was described "below" because your reply was top-posted.
    Top-posting is annoying in many little ways, so I manually fixed it.

    Good luck with CVS :-)

    Oh, and another thing. If you have more technical questions like this,
    please post them on freebsd-questions. That's the proper list.
