I think this means you are attempting to merge a new file onto a branch where
you created a file with the same name.  e.g.

    cvs rtag -b NEWBRANCH proj1
    cvs co proj1
    cd proj1
    touch testfile
    cvs add testfile
    cvs ci
    cvs update -dr NEWBRANCH
    touch testfile
    cvs add testfile
    cvs ci
    cvs update -A
    cvs update -j NEWBRANCH

should generate this error for testfile.
