You can just 'cvs add' them and they'll start working.  If you want the 
comments etc. just do a 'cvs init' into a directory somewhere and copy them 
out to use as templates.

For the most part the server works out what's there and uses it/upgrades it 
automatically.  It's downgrade that's hard... :)
