Recently I merged two repositories into one.  This was done by simply moving
the directories that contain the *,v files.
for example:
Server1 had
    D:/CVSServer/masterTree/CVSROOT
    D:/CVSServer/masterTree/myModule1/MySubModule1/MyNextModule1
    D:/CVSServer/masterTree/myModule2/

Server2 had
    C:/CVSServer/CVSRepo/CVSROOT
    C:/CVSServer/CVSRepo/myServer2Module1
    C:/CVSServer/CVSRepo/myServer2Module2
    C:/CVSServer/CVSRepo/myServer2Module3

I moved all the 'myServer2Module?'s under
D:/CVSServer/masterTree/myModule1/MySubModule1/MyServer2Modules
(I did not move the CVSROOT).

The file commit still succeeds, but I get the error about .history,v.  It
seems to me it should be looking in the CVSROOT directory for the .history,v
file.  Is there something I can do?
Thank you,
JoeE.
