I never did merging branches, but from what I know I'd say you're right.
cvs doesn't know that some changes in B came from A and weren't
written by hand. If I had to do this I'd update B from (Home+A). Like
that you have the A-changes in B too but now Home knows about it.
Just treat A and B as if they didn't know about each other. You want
to commit, you get conflicts, resolve conflicts, commit.
