@cindex remote repositories (CVS)
When a file's repository is on a remote machine, VC tries to keep
network interactions to a minimum. This is controlled by the variable
@var{vc-cvs-stay-local}. If it is @code{t}, then VC uses only the
entry in the local CVS subdirectory to determine the file's state (and
possibly information returned by previous CVS commands). One
consequence of this is that when you have modified a file, and
somebody else has already checked in other changes to the file, you
are not notified of it until you actually try to commit. (But you can
try to pick up any recent changes from the repository first, using
@kbd{C-x v m RET}, @pxref{Merging}).
