HOWTO: Checkout a drupal module from Drupal CVS
http://drupal.org/node/120511

Thanks to John Forsyth's comment:

cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -r DRUPAL-6--1-4 -d example_module contributions/modules/example_module

To take the one we actually always want, and that will then take care of all this foolishness itself, let's get Drush. Check for what the latest version is at that project page, 6.x-1.1 in this example, and get it:

sudo cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -r DRUPAL-6--1-1 -d drush contributions/modules/drush

and for the currently-latest Drupal 5, version 1.3:

sudo cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -r DRUPAL-5--1-3 -d drush contributions/modules/drush

Earlier efforts:
cvs -z9 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -r HEAD contributions/modules/example_module
Not smegging working the way we want it to.

Well that's a little confusing.

(Note: I don't currently have the hard drive space to make certain that this works!)

The "-d" lets you name the directory you want to create for the checkout and the "-r" lets you name the version (revision tag?) you want.

You need -r module-HEAD, not just HEAD. Ie. -r drush-HEAD.
