Context commands like CVS Import and CVS check out
were removed. There only global clones of these.
It will be better to automatically prefilled
fields in these dialogs to make the work with IDE
easier.

Steps:
1. Register new CVS versioned directory. Check out
sources. 
2. Create new e.g. project in version directory.
3. Select the root of the project and invoke
"Versioning | CVS | Import...".

Neccessary fields for successful import are empty.
 I think it will be better to prefill required
fields of dialog.

You should rather allow user to select among saved VCS profiles from different
servers, otherwise the fields might be populated wrong in any case.

Glenn, doesn't your message belong to issue #57550?
Comment 3 gholmer 2005-04-07 13:02:18 UTC 
No, if you checkout from Versioning / CVS on the main menu, the profile dropdown
is not shown at all.
