CVS recursive diff -- how to exclude specific directories?

I think I've seen out there that there is a command to ignore specific files within a directory when doing a (-R) recursive diff. I've never used this so I was wondering if there was anyone who could provide an example how I would run this. My thoughts are something like:
cvs diff -i <fileName1> <fileName2>...
and then can I just enter every fileName I want to ignore and not do the diff? I also saw something like: `cvs-diff-ignore-marks'
that looks like it customizes some toggle or flag so it'll know which files to diff and which ones to ignore.
Is there anyone who could help with how I might go about this?
