'import' adds all files from an existing directory (and subdirs) at once to CVS. Use this when you have a project already and want to start using CVS with it. Then move (or delete) the directory out of the way, or go to another directory and do a checkout to have a CVS working copy you can work on using CVS. You can then start using it.
IIRC you could also 'add' all the files one-by-one instead of doing an 'import', and then do the checkout. 'import' is merely a convenience thing to start using CVS on an existing project.
