to add and delete files from the repository also using push
buttons.
.
Module tree browser, and reports showing the structure of the
CVS modules tree. Individual modules or entire directory trees
may be checked out using the browser.
.
Updating of files from the repository when they change.
.
Tagging and branching of files from the file browser, and tagging
and branching of modules from the module browser.
.
