Ah, fool you. No, there really isn't a better way, which is a big
reason subversion <http://subversion.tigris.org> is being developed.

Creating a directory tree from scratch
--------------------------------------
For a new project, the easiest thing to do is probably to create an
empty directory structure, like this:
$ mkdir tc
$ mkdir tc/man
$ mkdir tc/testing
After that, you use the `import' command to create the corresponding
(empty) directory structure inside the repository:
$ cd tc
$ cvs import -m "Created directory structure" yoyodyne/DIR yoyo start
Then, use `add' to add files (and new directories) as they appear.
Check that the permissions CVS sets on the directories inside
`$CVSROOT' are reasonable.
