10== Adding, removing, and renaming files and directories ==
11
12In the course of a project, one will often add new
13files.  Likewise with removing or renaming, or with
14directories.  The general concept to keep in mind in
15all these cases is that instead of making an
16irreversible change you want <small>CVS</small> to record the
17fact that a change has taken place, just as with
18modifying an existing file.  The exact mechanisms to do
19this in <small>CVS</small> vary depending on the situation.
