Hrm, if I understand CVS at all, the old workflow was "cvsup a copy of
the repository, update a working tree against that", which is, I think,
actually even worse than the Git equivalent, since you can't reliably
even commit to that local clone of the CVS repository.

What am I missing?

You can still push directly upstream, I suppose, and just do 2-stage
pulls down.
