I'm not sure how hairy building X would be on your machine or if there exists
a binary of XFree for your platform, but I think you can install CVSup
from /usr/ports/net/cvsup-bin or /usr/ports/net/cvsup and give it these
flags:

cvsup -g -L 2 .....

this will have it not bring up X.  you can also export your DISPLAY variable
to point at another machine that does have X.
