Yes, CVS has modules. The Texinfo documentation is a bit awkward to
browse, but if you are interested in finding out how modules can be used
to create arbitrary `collections' of files, see:
% info '(cvs)'
Look for the section titled ``The modules file''. The most interesting
part of this is probably the description of the -a option, in the
subsection ``Alias modules''.
