Until version 1.11p1, CVS didn't actually provide a mechanism for a
client application to determine the set of files held in the
repository, so it wasn't possible to spot new files appearing. Most of
the client applications I've seen (include Xcode) still can't show a
list of what's there (well, they couldn't last time I looked at any
rate).
It looks like Panther still ships with CVS 1.10, so unless you've built
a newer version of CVS from source, you won't be able to get that
information from the command line either.
With versions 1.11p1 and above, you can do "cvs rlog" to get "cvs log"
output direct from the repository (without even needing a working
copy). Before 1.11p1, "rlog" was a deprecated synonym for "log" (if I
remember correctly), so it will only show you what is in your working
copy.
All of this would be just fine, of course, if Xcode let you perform SCM
operations on the project rather than just on the files (perhaps I'm
missing something, but all of the useful options in the SCM menu are
disabled when I select my project, and only enable themselves when I
actually select some files).
Kind regards,
Alastair.
