5 <para>Moving files: One of the (many) complaints against cvs is that
6 it has no concept of 1) moving files or 2) versioning directories. If
7 you need to move a file, it's generally better to do it on the server
8 manually. The alternative is remove a file using <userinput>cvs
9 delete</userinput> then add the new version in the new place with
10 <userinput>cvs add</userinput> The downside using this method is that you
11 will lose the revision history for that file. However, moving it on the
12 server itself won't cause a loss of revision history.</para>
