It's included in the 'openssh' package.

Yes, it is difficult. The place to search is

http://cygwin.com/packages/

You can type in an executable name, and it returns the package
containing it.

There should be a pointer to that page in the Cygwin install tool, or
a version of the search engine there!

Hmm. I haven't used cvsnt. But Cygwin CVS does what the CVS manual
says. 

I mount the Cygwin file systems in Unix line ending mode, so CVS does
no translation for me (which is what I want, and what the manual
says). I have at times mounted the Cygwin file systems in DOS line
ending mode, and then CVS output DOS line endings.
