$ cd ..
$ cp foodir/barfile blahdir
$ cvs rm -f foodir/barfile
$ cd blahdir
$ cvs add barfile
$ cd ..
$ cvs commit -m '- moved foodir/barfile to blahdir/barfile' foodir/barfile
blahdir/barfile
No history is lost. You should still be able to do "cvs log foodir/barfile"
The final "death" entry in the log for the old file will tell you where
the new file is and the first entry in the log of the new file will tell
you where it came from.
