That did not work, i.e. fourCircles remained "unmodified". Eventually, I 
managed by successively removing the file with "C" and then the file with "c". 
Then filter-branch, and then reset --hard as you suggested. Then of course, all 
the sha's have changed and git cvsimport can't be used for incremental updates 
anymore, which I knew would happen, obviously.
