You'll certainly turn blue if you try. CVS cannot easily ever support renaming to any extent that something like BitKeeper or Perforce does, at least not without breaking backwards compatabilty of the repository structure. There's simply no place to put the extra meta data necessary except in the commit comments themselves, and you can much more easily build simple little wrapper scripts to do renaming and to drive "cvs log", "cvs diff", "cvs annotate", and "cvs update" if that's all you're going to do. I've already started the ball rolling, yet again, by posting yet another version of the first such wrapper needed. -- Greg A.
