Could you please send us the output of

% cvs diff -r1.31.4.3 -r1.31.4.3.2.13 README

I could imagine that they are identical. Is that right?

With your cvs update command, you state that you want to
merge the changes from the cde2006_hop1 branch into your
working copy. There have been changes to the README file
in that branch (13 revisions). These changes are then
merged into your local README. It does not matter that
the 13th revision in that branch is the same as the original
version.

Kind regards
