Good idea. For those of use who didn't use -P (including me), I
think the directory that should be deleted from your local checkout
after doing the update is scripts/usb.
For better or worse, the -d is not the default to cvs because it
may be that you deliberately want to check out a sparse tree. If
-d were the default, CVS would try and recreate the subdirs you
didn't want.

Yes, and the answer is wonderfully simple although a pain to find.
(There is no need to use ssh-agent)
On SourceForge, log in and go to "My Personal Page". From there,
select "Account Maintenance". In the bottom right hand corner
of that page, there's a link called "Edit Keys". If you click
on this, you'll go to a form where you can paste in your identity.pub
file. What you enter on this form is copied to the shell and CVS
servers every six hours.
Make sure there are no linebreaks in the key! It has to be one line
per key.
Note also that if your key requires a passphrase, you'll still need
to type it - this just removes the need to type in your SourceForge
password all the time.
If anyone else has some questions regarding how to do things at
SourceForge, please don't hesitate to ask.
Regards,
Mitch.
