Well, I have never used Tortoise so I cannot say anything about it. >Never the less, he did it, and he got himself painted into a corner that >he couldn't get out of. I don't use the edit-commit or edit-unedit cycle myself, but from what I have read the unedit is supposed to revert any edits that have been done to a file by returning the cached file copy in the CVS folder.
