If you do a merge checkout like CVS suggest when there are conflicts
(CVS suggests doing ``cvs checkout -j FOO:yesterday -j FOO foo'', but
that doesn't work if you do multiple imports in a single day so it's
really better to use the import tags), it will delete files that are no
longer relevant.  Committing the result then updates the repository.
