question on cvs update

[Naveen Srinivasa Murthy]

Hi,

Im have a problem while using the cvs update.

lets say that the source code is in cvs and i checked out the code
using cvs onto my local machine.

lets assume that someone else in the project added a new subdirectory
to the existing source in cvs(using cvs import)

Since the new sub-directory and its contents are not in my local machine
, I presumed that i should be doing a 'cvs update' to download
the new directory and its contents.

Is this the right way? I tried it once but even though the new
sub directory appeared, it was containing only 'non-cvs' files.

if im wrong, how should i add a new subdirectory to cvs, and how
should other update their local content?

thanks
Naveen
