Hi Eran, thats right. Meld wont connect to the repository unless
explicitly told to. Also there is no builtin way to compare against
CVS head. Partially this is beause it's too CVS-centric, partially
because I never work this way. I use viewcvs to watch changes as it's
much more powerful than a dumb client can be.

So far, I've resisted trying to make meld a "full" featured VC client
and in fact I'd love to see somebody start a spin off project with
this goal.
