There are even easier ways, as I've already pointed out to Nik:
setenv CVS_RSH ssh
do-local-cvs() {
setenv CVSROOT /home/ncvs
[ -f CVS/Root ] && echo $CVSROOT > CVS/Root
}
do-remote-cvs() {
setenv CVSROOT freefall.freebsd.org:/home/ncvs
[ -f CVS/Root ] && echo $CVSROOT > CVS/Root
}
cvscommit() {
do-remote-cvs
cvs commit $*
do-local-cvs
}
$ do-local-cvs
$ cvs co ls
<hack hack, test test>
$ cvscommit
nik@freefall.freebsd.org's password: <type type>
<enter commit message, done>

Yes, ssh-agent is a good idea. Starting it on your window manager is,
however, not such a good idea since it won't include any of the
clients in your .xsession/.xinitrc and some of those are usually
xterms in the typical scenario. Far better to have (assuming that
you're using xdm and .xsession):
jkh@time-> cat ~/.xsession
ssh-agent $HOME/.xsession-real
jkh@time-> cat ~/.xsession-real
<real xsession file, including ssh-add as first line>
Otherwise a great brief, thanks!
