It looks like I need some coaching with CVS. It's been a long, long time since I used it daily.
No worries, same here .. trying to recall. > $ cvsu > X manual/html_node $ cvsu cvsu: command not found I assume you had a typo, but for what, I'm not sure. Not a typo, it is part of the cvsutils package. $ cvs update -PAd Right, cvs update will try to add the files back. Did you do remove? You also need to do commit after. So basically, cvs remove foo.html; cvs commit -m "foo.html: Delete." foo.html If my memory serves me right. I would suggest, just to be on the safe side, to do it in a fresh checkout. _IF_ you want, you can add me to the groff project, and I can wipe those files.
