Using CVS for backup-recovery

CVS-only backup is often appropriate for development sites. If you are already using CVS and your data is not important, you probably don't need to do anything to back up your files. Just make sure that your current work is checked into the system. You can then roll back based on date - note the current system time, down to the minute. For maximum safety, you can apply a tag to your current - files. You will still need to back up your database.
