I assume you meant to say *remove* a project -- yes, that's fine.

It would be better to import both versions (in order, of course),
followed by the usual checkout/merge:

        <http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.23/cvs_13.html#SEC105>

That lets CVS figure out added and removed files automatically rather
than you having to do it manually.
