I'm not a fan of having cvs/svn/etc update the cfinputs directory
automatically. We deliberately chose to use rsync to roll out the cfinputs
manually, so that the cfmaster never has access to the repository directly.
This means you can control access to who can make things go live using SSH
keys, but still let minions check things in, and you also make sure that if
the server is compromised then the repository won't be (necessarily).
