"No space left on device" error during cvs status/update"

I didn't see anybody else actually provide a way out, other than to say that /tmp is full, because it's a memfs, and therefore small. One way out is the "-T" option to cvs, (on the server side) to tell CVS to use a different directory then /tmp for this. See: http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/
