C.1 The modules file
====================
The `modules' file records your definitions of names for collections of
source code. CVS will use these definitions if you use CVS to update
the modules file (use normal commands like `add', `commit', etc).
The `modules' file may contain blank lines and comments (lines
beginning with `#') as well as module definitions. Long lines can be
continued on the next line by specifying a backslash (`\') as the last
character on the line.
There are three basic types of modules: alias modules, regular
modules, and ampersand modules. The difference between them is the way
that they map files in the repository to files in the working
directory. In all of the following examples, the top-level repository
contains a directory called `first-dir', which contains two files,
`file1' and `file2', and a directory `sdir'. `first-dir/sdir' contains
a file `sfile'.
