Any way to reverse that so it's a forward diff, particularly on a
whole file set at once?  I've been using

    cvs diff -r BASE -r HEAD [file]

but that generates error messages when files have been removed etc.,
and I wonder if there's a better way.  This tactic also seems to fail
on branches, though I find "HEAD" seems to have a different meaning
sometimes on a branch anyway.
