I also have experienced weird happenings when I rename a file.
If i changed the name, it works fine, but if all I change in the
name is the case of some of the letters... hmmmmm
eg. mv 101DVD.jpg 101dvd.jpg
do an add on the new file
eg. cvs add -kb 101dvd.jpg
and a remove on the old filename
eg. cvs remove -kb 101DVD.jpg
commit and things seem to go ok... but on a later update, cvs
seems to give me another copy of the old file
ie. 101DVD.jpg reappears !
I haven't really got into depth investigating what causes
it, just have to fix the little issues by hand and run with
it at this stage.. but if anyone can shed some light, or has
experienced this problem and investigated the solution, or
cause, I'd appreciate sharing what you know...
cheers
