+.SH NAME
+rancid-cvs \- initialize CVS and rancid group files and directories
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B rancid-cvs
+[group [group ...]]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B rancid-cvs
+is a
+.IR sh (1)
+script to create the directories,
+.BR router.db (5),
+and
+.BR cvs (1)
+directories necessary for a rancid group.
+.\"
+.PP
+.B rancid-cvs
+reads
+.BR rancid.conf (5)
+to configure itself.  Then proceeds with the initialization first of the
+.BR cvs (1)
+repository, if necessary, and then for each of the rancid groups listed on
+the command-line or those in the variable
+.I LIST_OF_GROUPS
+from
+.BR rancid.conf (5),
+if the argument is omitted.
+.\"
+.PP
+Running
+.B rancid-cvs
+for groups which already exist will not cause problems.  If the group's
+directory already exists, the
+.BR cvs (1)
+import will be skipped, and if it's
+.BR router.db (5)
+already exists, it will be left as-is.
+.\"
+.PP
+The best method for adding groups is add the group name to
+.I LIST_OF_GROUPS
+in
+.BR rancid.conf (5),
+then run
+.B rancid-cvs.  Do not create the directories manually, allow rancid-cvs
+to do it.
