Can someone with a Macintosh tell me (sean@interactivate.com) how the setup works? Is there any special trick necessary? Is it a complete Macintosh Easy Install deal, or do you just unstuff one program file and click on it?

Version control software was developed with a library model in mind, where each computer file was treated like a unique library book--anyone editing the file had to ``check it out'' of the library, and before another user could edit the file, the current user had to ``check in'' the same file back to the library. Although CVS version control has evolved well beyond this original library metaphor, it may help to understand some of the original terminology as you work with it. MacCVSClient uses ``check in'' as a preferred synonym for ``commit.''
