When you remove a file from the repository you actually mark it as dead, and it stays in the repository.. Therefore the upcount in revision numbers.
 
I think the way to permanently delete a file is to to it "hard" and without using cvs-commands (in Unix use rm) That is if you are clear with that the file and all previous revisions will forever be gone. You also have to have access to removing files from the cvsroot.
 
Hope this information is correct ;-)

Subject: how to really remove the information of the file?

Dear members,
 
When I remove a file from the repository, the file doesn't exist any more, but, If I want to add a file with the same name, the revision number is not 1.1, it takes in to account that this file was previously removed, so the revsion number is 1.2. Is there any way to avoid this behavour?
 
Thanks in advance,
 
David
