In a simple single-authored project where she is trying to maintain a 
much more fine grained control over her revisions that what the 
"official" repository allows I'm not sure why she would even want to 
"sync" the repositories?  It seems a simple comment in her personal 
repository to the effect that "At this point in development the code 
was released to the official repository" should suffice.

(By "snycing" I'm assuming you mean "make them identical in all 
respects including cvs assigned revision levels" at some point in 
time )  

Given the assumption above, why do you feel "syncing" is important 
here?
