to me, it doesn't really.

 

-C will always leave the file you weere working on (with a name staring with #)

and you can always invoke your "delete+update" command by mistake, which will really nuke your working version ...

Yes, that has the functionality, but here's why I'd really like a seperate menu item for it.  If you forget to remove the "-C" from the "additional options" section, then you could end up killing a large portion of your work in a given directory. Since the "additional options" persists from use to use of the "update" command, it's dangerous to use it.  So, it would be really helpful to have this as an additional cvs menu item along with update.  Does that make sense?

And, I'd like a cvs command which combines these two: delete local copy, update.  Then, I can effectively revert to the latest in the repository.
