Subversion's designed specifically as a CVS replacement, but better. For
the basic work cycle, you can mostly replace 'cvs' with 'svn' and notice
quite little difference, with the exception that 'svn status' is much
more useful than 'cvs status' and something you use often.
There's a "Subversion for CVS Users" chapter in the Subversion book that
should help you.
