+
+;;; Commentary:
+
+;; This is derived from vc-cvs.el as follows:
+;; - cp vc-cvs.el vc-mcvs.el
+;; - Replace CVS/ with MCVS/CVS/
+;; - Replace 'CVS with 'MCVS
+;; - Replace -cvs- with -mcvs-
+;; - Replace most of the rest of CVS to Meta-CVS
+;;
+;; Then of course started the hacking.  Only a small part of the code
+;; has been touched and not much more than that was tested, so if
+;; you bump into a bug, don't be surprised: just report it to me.
+;;
+;; What has been partly tested:
+;; - C-x v v to start editing a file that was checked out with CVSREAD on.
+;; - C-x v v to commit a file
+;; - C-x v =
+;; - C-x v l
+;; - C-x v i
+;; - C-x v g
+
+;;; Bugs:
+
+;; - Both the diff and log output contain Meta-CVS inode names so that
+;;   several operations in those buffers don't work as advertised.
+;; - VC-dired doesn't work.
