[Techtalk] CVS - preserving history of renamed files.

Just wondering whether there are any best practices for preserving history
of files you rename or move within a repository so that you can, for
example, revert to a previous version from before the rename or move.

the CVS FAQ has one solution:
http://ccvs.cvshome.org/fom//cache/140.html
(see last comment)

Has anyone tried this and had relatively good luck?

Regards,

becky
