Two ways:

First, do cvs commit then cvs up -r branchname (then you won't take your
changes over to it).  Well, you *could* delete the files you've changed,
and lose all of your changes.  But that's not the usual course of action.

Second, check out into another area on your harddrive and change
directories.

At least, I hope your build system isn't hard coded to require an absolute
directory location, and is instead more relative.
