[GRASS5] CVS downtime for file copy

[Bernhard Reiter]

Markus and Radim have send me a script for 
moving the files in CVS from grass5 to grass51.

I plan to do the move tomorrow during the day.
For the operation I will switch off CVS access
for approximately 30 minutes.

So watch this mailinglist, because if you are working on grass51,
because you want to update your repositories after the move.

Afterwards the list of files can be used to use cvs admin command
to set a state or so, if you want to mark it.
