It really doesn't matter how much you like some features of CVS if you
don't like the "concurrent" part -- CVS was designed to force its users
into the concurrent (parallel) development model.  If you don't want to
do that then you do not want to use CVS.

Conversely If you really really really want to use CVS then you really
really really must get comfortable with the concurrent development
model.

You might also want to look at other tools which allow concurrent
development but with a more controlled two-phase commit mechanism,
eg. Aegis.
