Assuming I did this, what's the approved method?
Myself, I'd just
# mv ipf.1 ipf.8
# cvs remove ipf.1
# cvs add ipf.8
# cvs commit -m "Renamed ipf.1 to ipf.8" ipf.1 ipf.8
[... check for any other man pages that refer to ipf(1) and update
them accordingly ...]
which properly reflects that (until the change) ipf.8 didn't exist. I
*would not* use a repository copy for this.
I'm aware that some people's opinions of when you repository copy and
when you don't are different, however.
