I can't speak to WinCVS, but with CVS if your working directory was
checked out on a branch, any files you add will be added on the branch
rather than on the main trunk:
$ cvs up -r BRANCH # switch to branch
cvs update: Updating .
$ echo foo4 >foo4
$ cvs add foo4
cvs add: scheduling file `foo4' for addition on branch `BRANCH'
cvs add: use 'cvs commit' to add this file permanently
$ cvs ci -m test
cvs commit: Examining .
RCS file: /public/CVS/foo/Attic/foo4,v
done
Checking in foo4;
/public/CVS/foo/Attic/foo4,v <-- foo4
new revision: 1.1.2.1; previous revision: 1.1
done
$ cvs up -A # go back to trunk
cvs update: Updating .
cvs update: warning: foo4 is not (any longer) pertinent
