You use "1.2". Yes, you use the ,v file in those transactions (there shoul donly be ,v files in your repository). You moved the file back from the "Attic" directory right ? If you don't cvs won't show the file. The order does not matter (you can move the file before or after you have applied the rcs surgery).
