This is not true. The state of hunt/Makefile is what you get if you
cvs add and commit version 1.1, and then later on do a cvs import of
the same file, without explicitly merging. If you do the explicit
merge you get a version 1.2 that's identical to 1.1.1.1, but that
doesn't change 1.1. (I just tested this out in /tmp.)

I think the set of possible states is larger than you think :-)
