"18.6 Using CVS for a Single-User Local Repository" "18.9 Creating a Shared CVS Repository"
Each heading is followed by a short, direct description on how to do the task, complete with what to type in. It's the examples that man pages ought to have (if man pages weren't written by people who didn't need man pages, for people who didn't need man pages).
There are many, many, many things that have to be memorized in order to use Linux effectively. There are many more whose details should be forgotten and retrieved when needed using "man". But there are a few tasks that I only do occasionally, and this format suits perfectly. I might have to create a new CVS repository one every couple years. I don't want to have to wade through the man pages to figure out how to do it and I don't want to buy a CVS-specific book. This does the trick.
(Oh, and there are some non-CVS chapters, too...)
I think I've bought three copies of this book so far. It really has proven to be that useful."
