Refreshing my working directory

Hi,

I have a working directory called TempDir.   Recently the files in the
repository were modified, so I want to do a refresh of my whole working
directory, even the files that I changed in my working directory and
have not checked in yet. I want everything in TempDir to be updated with
the latest files and overwritten.

However, when I run a "cvs co TempDir", it just *merges* my modified
files with the latest files instead of overwriting (refreshing) them.
Similarly, if i do a "cvs update" from the topmost directory, it does
the same thing.

How can I refresh the whole directory instead of getting all the files
merged?  I can't use "cvs update -C" because I have version 1.10, which
doesn't implement it, and it is a hassle for everyone else to upgrade to
version 1.11.1.


Danial.
