Adding new files to branch puts them in the Attic?

[Dennis Jones]

Hi,

I am seeing something that, while it is not harmful, seems very strange.

I am working on a branch in which I am doing some side development.  If
everything goes as planned, then this branch will eventually get merged into
the main trunk.  The wierd thing is that when I add new files or directories
to this branch, all the new files end up in Attic subdirectories in the
repository.  Why is that?  Shouldn't files only go into the Attic when they
are removed, not added?  I am using CVS 1.11 on both client (Windows) and
server (Linux).

Thanks
