cvs update gives P response

[Chris Edgington]

We're running CVS as our source control system over our company VPN. The pserver
is a linux box. When I do an update locally to sync with the source on the
server, I often get a P next to the filenames that are updated by cvs. What
exactly is the P telling, in comparison to a U, M, or C? I don't find any
documentation on the P response. I see in the source that it means that a Patch
was sent and is only in the server build of CVS? Since we're using the client
versions locally, I'm confused about why we're getting the P. Can anybody
explain?

Thanks,
