RE: CVS Unix to Linux Migration

[Rez]

In my original email I had asked the question:
 
In our singular repository we have a few obsolote projects or folders, we don't need them, and we don't need the history either.  Should I login to the repository server and delete the obsolete folders directly from the file system or via my Windows client, check them out, delete and commit them to the attic.  Yves had suggested the latter, mentioning that the latter method will keep the integrity of the cvs log in check. 
 
My problem with this latter method is that all the files in the attic still occupy space and mind you, these are projects we don't need anymore. What do you recommend?
 
Thanks
