I'm a bit confused - if you have strong connections, and you're going to
be updating the repository from several computers, doesn't this seem like
you're trying to reinvent the wheel?

It seems to me like you're trying to make Coda do something with CVS when
it would probably be easier and safer to let CVS (with pserver or ssh) do
the job it's been designed for.
