I think there is no security risk. You just upload your public key (which
must not be password protected!) to sourceforge.
If you then connect to cvs it will establish a ssh connection using your
private key. The whole transaction is secure imo.
Once you have the password-free login enabled, you can start using cervisia.
For you it is definitely worth the effort! You will save a lot of time later!
This applies for everybody who is in the development and changing files in
cvs. It is also especially useful when adding/removing files and verifying
which files actually are in cvs.
