You have to "checkout" the "module". And the -z3 will have the transfer
be somewhat compressed (good for ppp connections).  When you want to
update the repository, just 'cd' into the 'gote' directory and run:

$ export CVSROOT=`cat CVS/Root`
$ cvs -z3 update -dP

There's a couple pretty good manuals about CVS as Debian packages --
cvsbook and cvs-doc.
