It's in the savannah docs. For example here;
        http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=monit 
Under that chapter; Developer CVS Access via SSH (Version 1, RSA).

Anyway here's a short intro: 

First, create a keyset (protocol1 type):

 ssh-keygen -b 1024 -t rsa1
 
Copy the public key (.ssh/identity.pub) to savannah's cvs server via
this form:

        https://savannah.gnu.org/account/editsshkeys.php

Wait 1 hour for the update to take effect. Then you can do:

export CVS_RSH=ssh

cvs -z3 address@hidden:/cvsroot/monit/ co monit

cd monit

<update files>

cvs ci file
or cvs ci file1 file2... fileN

Ps. Remember that a checkin will go down on your permanent record, so
comment the changes. Also NEVER, EVER check in code that does not
compile. In fact you should compile with gcc -Wall and see no warnings
from the compiler before you checkin the code.
