Nope. Here's quote from an excellent book on CVS: ;)

  "Once the CVS executable is installed on your system, you can start
  using it right away as a client to access remote repositories,
  following the procedures described in An Overview of CVS. However,
  if you want to serve revisions from your machine, you have to create
  a repository there. The command to do that is

    floss$ cvs -d /usr/local/newrepos init"

That error looks really odd. Can you give us a verbose reproduction
recipe?

The command you're typing above is attempting to create a working copy
dir called 'test-repo-1' in '.' Is there already a directory in '.'
by that name?

If so, just add a '-d wc-dir-name' argument to the end of your
command.
