If you are maintaining many changes then I can strongly recommend
keeping using the 'vendor branch' feature of CVS.

You add the original copy of the CMF source to your local CVS using a
'cvs import' command. Then make your changes, and commit it as usual.
When you later want to upgrade to a newer CMF you use another 'cvs
import' command, and CVS will automatically merge your changes into
the newer version.
