Okay, but what is 'cvs release' for then? I remember that there was a slight
difference between 'cvs release' and simply deleting the directory. I wonder if
this difference (if any) is important for me.

I have not done any mistakes so far, at least I'm not aware of any. So far I
have been hyper cautious.
I have many projects I want to manage with CVS, some of them are related to each
other, either technically linked, or just thematically. So what I am considering
is a hierarchical structure like this:
CVS Root
\
\--tools
\ \-----myFileManager
\ \-----ClipboardExpander
\ \-----ToolX
\
\--ComplexProject
\-----MainExecutable
\-----PluginA
\-----Scripts
\-----PluginB
The mistakes that I might do is adding and commiting a module a the wrong place
in the hierarchy, e.g. adding ToolY as ComplexProject/ToolY instead of
tools/ToolY, or committing a file that I do not want in the repository.
Can I simply move the module and delete the mistakably added file inside the
repository?
Thanx for your help!
Cheers
