 Reference manual for Administrative files
 *****************************************
 
    Inside the repository, in the directory `$CVSROOT/CVSROOT', there
 are a number of supportive files for CVS.  You can use CVS in a limited
 fashion without any of them, but if they are set up properly they can
 help make life easier.  For a discussion of how to edit them, see 
 Intro administrative files.
 
    The most important of these files is the `modules' file, which
 defines the modules inside the repository.
