If you want the CVS directories, then you should not specify
any tag.  A tag of '.' means "the head branch".  What were
you looking at that recommended a tag of '.' for the CVS
repositories?

Also note that if you use no-tag, you get the CVS repository.
That means you'll see filenames like
     lpr.1,v
     lpr.c,v

and not:
     lpr.1
     lpr.c

As someone else suggested, look at the sample cvs-config
files that are in /usr/share/examples/cvsup
