Depending on your shell...

    cvs import -I \! module vendor vendor-version

or

    cvs import -I '!' module vendor vendor-version

will tell cvs to ignore its default ignore list.

However, any .cvsignore entries in the given directories are still
honored.

You may find

  http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/current/cvs_16.html

under the '-I name' section to be helpful to you.

        Enjoy!
