CVSROOT Variables
The administrative files in CVSROOT can use several types of variables: internal, environment, and shell variables. You can use these variables to pass parameters to the scripts in the scripting files, or you can use them as part of command-line templates.
The internal variables allow you to use information CVS stores about the currently running command. The environment variables are used to access information from the environment the command is running in, and the shell variables are used to access information about the shell.
