<p>This appendix is a guide for CVS users new to Subversion.
It's essentially a list of differences between the two systems
as <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">viewed from 10,000 feet.</span>”</span> For each section, we
provide references to relevant chapters when
possible.</p>
<p>Although the goal of Subversion is to take over the current
and future CVS user base, some new features and design changes
were required to fix certain <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">broken</span>”</span> behaviors
that CVS had. This means that, as a CVS user, you may need to
break habits—ones that you forgot were odd to begin
with.</p>
