It needs an education, it (according to your requirements below) is required
to learn a few things.
Assume either you can do this under Unix, Cygwin or get working tools for

your process now needs to have folks/programs run `cvs remove -f file` only,
and let .cvsrc and `cvs update` take care of deleting subdirectories.

the cvs commit at the end should take care of that if you did not blow away

then
#Hope you never have binary files or compile products just laying about.
cvs add filename

if they were deleted with `cvs remove -f file` then they will be cleaned up
with a `cvs commit`.
