I think the original poster's point is that the files in this directory
get created automatically by the build process. The directory was
never supposed to have been put into CVS in the first place, but
was, by mistake. So, at this point, the directory is populated with
build-related files which he doesn't want to have to remove every
time he does an update... What he wants is to simply get rid of the
directory, so far as CVS is concerned. The issue he's having is that
when he does an udpate, it fails because there are files in that
directory that CVS knows nothing about.
(That's how I read the original question, anyway...)
