In 99.9% of all cases you want to use the -P (prune empty directories) and
-d (create directories) options of cvs update, i.e.:

    cvs up -Pd

See:

    http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.10/cvs_16.html#SEC153

To avoid specifying this every time, create a ~/.cvsrc file with a line

    update -Pd

in it, see:

    http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.10/cvs_16.html#SEC116
