[cvsnt] Help correcting mistake

[P. Dwayne Miller]

I have a user that tried to manually move a file out of the attic... (he 
had deleted it by mistake).  Now, some operations work on that file, but 
some result in the following error

cvs server: Dropping data: pos>vec->nlines
cvs [server aborted]: invalid change text in d:/cvs/dir/file.txt,v

We've both looked at the edited file, but cannot see anything that looks 
wrong.  I would like to be able to keep the revision history so would 
like to be able to recover the file if possible.  Otherwise, I can 
delete the file completely and checkin the latest revision and go 
forward from there.

He says he removed the 'DEAD" revision by editing the file manually.

Any hopes?

Tks,
Dwayne
