Adding files in CVS is yet another story, so for simplicity let's avoid mixing different issues. > - some subdirectories have been deleted, which have been previously > checked in This was a mistake. You should not delete subdirectories, -- just delete all the regular files in them. [BTW, you have no way to check in directories with CVS, so your "previously checked in" above makes no sense.] If you do delete (sub)directory, CVS thinks you just don't like to see it in this particular working tree (it is sometimes useful indeed). It won't recognize deleted (sub)directories as a change. That's how things are with CVS. -- Sergei.
