file missing from 'cvs -nq up'

[Steve Harris]

Hi all,

I'm getting some strange behaviour that I thought you guys could help me
clarify.

I'm working in my sandbox, made a copy of an existing file to a new name
and out of interest did a 'cvs -nq up'. lo and behold there were some new
files listed that I hadn't yet added to the repository but the file I had
just created by copying was not listed.  A 'cvs status' of the file showed
the repository knew nothing about it.

Any ideas ?

Cheers all - Steve
