I don't think so. They're a safety feature, really - it makes sure you
don't accidentally trash any of your valuable local changes. 'del /s
.#*' will remove them.

CVS will insert conflict markers that look something like this:

<<<<<<< filename
text that's in your local copy
=======
conflicting text in the repository
>>>>>>> CVS revision number in the repository

Just search for the '<<<<<<<' string, and examine the two sets of
changes, keeping the one you want.
