Renaming directories is not very easy, especially if there are alot of subdirectories. It is done sort of the same way as renaming files, where you copy the file to the new name, add the newly named file(cvs add), remove the old named file(cvs remove), and commit the changes(cvs commit). Doing the entire directory is similiar: 1. Copy the directory to the new name 2. Remove the old directory 3. Remove the CVS hidden directories in the new directory and any subdirectories 4. Add the new files and directory(cvs add contents) 5. Commit the changes(cvs commit) 6. Update. To remove the hidden CVS files, you need to be able to see them. Most users have hiddden files and directories unviewable. To view them, you need to open Windows Explorer, select Tools>Folder Options…, select the View tab and click “Show hidden files and folders” (6th item in Advanced settings list box). CVS history will start from the renaming point, although it is available through the original name for history prior t
