Does wincvs have anything _but_ command-line utilities? The biggest problem
I had with wincvs is setting up environment variables. Though, that was
only a problem due to my extremely limited knowledge of windows (if you can
ever be proud of the _lack_ of something, knowledge of windows is
my favorite thing to lack :). Anyway, the javadev shop where I worked had
a bunch of windows users who used wincvs without any problems. It's pretty
much a straight port of the cvs utilities for *nix.
