Not if you don't have commit access! :-) You can diff against /dev/null. I think that's what would happen if you did a cvs remove and then generated the patch with cvs diff -N. Anyway, I just committed the removal. My favored flavor is: cvs remove -f <file> cvs commit But remember to fix up MANIFEST too...
