There are multiple ways to do that.

1) Check out as usual, then delete all the CVS/ stuff:

	% cvs -d /cvs/repo checkout module
	% find module -type d -name CVS | xargs rm -fr

2) Use the `export' command and a specific tag/version:

	% cvs export -rHEAD module

Both should leave you with the HEAD revision of every file in `module'.
If you need to update to a branch or tag, use the appropriate -r TAG as
checkout or export options, i.e.:

	% cvs checkout -r TAG module
	% cvs up -Pd -r TAG
	% find . -type d -name CVS | xargs rm -fr

or

	% cvs export -r TAG module
