In general, you have to indicate them.  (If you're on a system where
there's no distinction between text and binary files [e.g., Unix-like
systems], then you can get away with importing them normally and then
marking them as binary after the fact.  If you're on a system that does
distinguish between text and binary files [e.g., Windows], then a normal
import will probably corrupt the files.)  You can use the cvswrappers
file and/or the -W option to import to specify which files are binary.
