Hi all,

I added a whole directory to CVS, and everything is working great, except for one 
thing: I checked in a file starting with a "-" (the minus sign).
Now one of my collegues uses wincvs to edit this new project, and he wanted to delete 
the file. Marking the file for deletion was ok, but the commit is not working. The cvs 
commit command at first complained about this file with "unknown option", so I called 
cvs like this:

cvs commit -m "message" -- -filename.txt

So now the cvs command itself ws happy, but the server complains with:

up-to-date check failed for -filename.txt

Can anybody help me how to get rid of this? Or do I need to say to everybody: don't 
use files starting with a minus sign, and delete the file manually from CVS?

With friendly regards,

Franky
