There is none -- they're synonyms.

You haven't really deleted the file until you commit it.  After you've
committed the deletion, you can add a new file with the same name. 
Alternatively, you can resurrect the original file by doing a "cvs add"
on it (you must not have an existing file with that name, however) and
then overwrite it with your new file.
