cvs command to view newly added empty/non-empty Dir

[njava]

Hi all,
I am not a cvs expert. I am using "cvs -nq up" (somebody told me to use this ) to view a list of all new/updated/modified/conflicting files.

But, the limitation of this command is that it does not list any Newly Added Directories.
How can I see a List of all Newly Added Directories into CVS?

Any help/hint is very much appreciated.
Thanks.
