Uhm, a quick inspection of the repository reveals something strange:

Notice how, even if in Attic, CVS history does not contain a ''dead''
event (cfr. with source:vcpx/tests/data/cvs-deleted_test.log).
So, technically, the ticket is wrong stating that ''"cvs files are being
revived"'': they aren't deleted, instead; having asked for the whole
history, tailor __must__ get their initial version, that once upon a time
was there, but it can't obviously determine '''when''' they disappeared.
Most probably, someone manually tweaked the repo.
Maybe tailor could catch the case, if it's common...
