Re: Deal with Directory Structure Change

[Michael Lukaschek]

That's not right!
If you check out with Tag REL1 you will get ALL files (and directories) that
exist in REL1, even if they have been deleted in the mean time (and moved to
attic). Be sure to use cvs remove to have the files in the attic and not to
delete the files on the server!
