The structure is ok, except that when a file or directory name contains an accented character, like those : "é","è", "ù", and so on ..., each of these characters are replaced by a question mark (?). Of course, it is now impossible to commit or update the modified files and directories.
That looks like the file names are encoded in an 8-bit encoding, but your terminal, file manager or whatever you're viewing the file names in tries to interpret them as UTF-8. The non-English letters are then seen as illegal UTF-8 code sequences, and question marks are displayed instead.
I wouldn't exactly be surprised if CVS ignores the character encoding issue entirely, thereby forcing everyone to use the same encoding.
As "ne..." said, you can edit /etc/sysconfig/i18n, but it will affect your entire system.
