CVS commit fails when I give path along with file name

[Sundeep]

When I am trying to commit the file giving the filename with path it
fails. When I move to the directory where the file exist and give
commit with only file name, it happens.


%cvs commit  -r test_7919_1 -m 'hi' mywork/ad/web/html/hello.html
cvs [commit aborted]: no such tag test_7919_1

% cd mywork/ad/web/html/
%cvs commit -r test_7919_1 -m 'hi' hello.html
Checking in hello.html;
/m/isd/data/cvsroot/ad/web/html/hello.html,v  <--  hello.html
new revision: 10.1.8.1; previous revision: 10.1
done


my CVSROOT is /m/isd/data/cvsroot
I checked out the module ad/web/html from CVSROOT to ~/jdevhome/
test_7919_1/mywork

Could anyone help me with is. I need the functionality of committing a
file from parent directories, giving the path.
