I found a way to do this for SVN by unchecking the Allow models to participate in synchronization box:

The same can be done for CVS in Team β CVS β Sync / Compare Settings, although I have not tested it.
UPDATE: If this does not work for the first time, in the View menu (by clicking the small arrow next to the Minimize button for the Synchronize panel), select Presentation β Tree.
