Get Error with CVS->Edit command on Mac OS X

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install the plugin on Mac OS X
2. Open a file in MacVim or Vim
3. Try doing VCS/CVS->Edit

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output is that file is set to Edit mode. Instead I get the error that 
"Cannot change the 
file mode. Operation not permitted"

It seems that you have some local permission issues (on the CVS directory in 
the same 
directory as the file in question).

Please try the following:

cd to the directory containing the file in question.

Execute 'cvs edit <file name>'.

Do you see the same issue?

Yes. I get the same error
"cvs edit: cannot change mode of file workspace-mgmt.xsl: Operation not 
permitted"

But I am able to do CVS Edit using Eclipse fine.

Thanks for your help

This appears to be a local permission issue.
