Cannot re-add files

[Ross Burton]

Hi,

Several months ago we removed some files from our CVS tree. Now we want
to add them back...

$ cvs add absolute.oc
cvs server: re-adding file absolute.oc (in place of dead revision 2.2)
$ cvs commit absolute.oc
cvs server: cannot add file `absolute.oc' when RCS file
`/opt/cvsroot/ORIGIN/Libraries/DataArea/NumberItem/absolute.oc,v'
already exists

Argh!

I've tried removing the files from CVS/Entries and re-running cvs update
-PdA, but I still get the message.  Any ideas?  Or do I have to
remove/move files in the tree?

Thanks for any help,
Ross Burton
