Don't put derived objects under version control. Version only the
source files that go into making libmeet.a. If you must have libmeet.a
in the version control system, for whatever strange reason, add it as
a binary file. When you merge, merge the sources, recompile them and
commit the newly compiled binary file.

I assume from the example name that these are Unix archives?  If so,
they're not source files and probably shouldn't be stored in CVS in the
first place.  If you insist, you need to mark them as the binary files
they are (with "cvs admin -kb", for example).
