I thought I'd send this to dev first since fewer people seem to
subscribe and I don't want to encourage potentially bad behavior. 
Nevertheless, I have written a script I use for updating my horde.  I do
a fresh checkout every time, mostly because I dink with the code quite a
bit and I still haven't learned much about how to make CVS do what i
want it to.  Nevertheless, if you are interested, the script is at:

I also wouldn't object to suggestions as it's my first sh script.

The other part of the question is would using this script, in general,
cause a detrimental effect on the CVS server.  I'm not sure how
efficient the protocol is, so I don't know if a full checkout is much
worse than an update if the file sizes are small like they are with IMP.

Anyone comments (including "take it back - it will kill our servers")
welcome :)
