The problem you're most likely to have is that when importing stuff into
CVS, CVS will make a copy of the module in /tmp.  If what you're
importing is bigger than /tmp, CVS will fail.

So, in your case, make sure /tmp on the CVS server is >30Mb.

But why check in a tarball?  Wouldn't it make more sense to check in the
individual files in the tar?
