My problem is with my students. I provide a .bashrc with useful
command lines, like

cvslab()
{
   save old CVSROOT, CVS_RSH, CVSEDITOR
   new CVSROOT & Co
   cvs $@
   restore CVS environment
   unset backup variables
}

So they can just

cvslab co myProject
cvslab diff ...
...

without caring about the environment... I wanted to do something like
that for subversion:

svn co myProject
...
