If I want to remove a directory, including all files and subdirectories, can I just remove the top directory, or should I remove all files (I'm talking about a cvs remove, not a true delete from the repository)? I think, but don't konw for sure, that directories are not versioned, which would imply that all files must be removed. Maybe the action depends on the tool used: command line, tortoise, wincvs - all three of which I use. In WinCvs, there is no option to remove a dir, I assume I would use the flat view, and remove all files. In Tortioise I can remove a dir, but I don't know what it does...possibly remove all files with a script. What is the correct way to do the same with the command line, or is the only option to individually remove each file? Thanks, Mark
