This is in response to Simon Schubert's suggestion that T_ADDED is an
inappropriate category for a remotely added file.  Instead this treats
remotely added files the same as remotely changed files.

Martin, I think this looks like a sane change.

It does -- sorry I've been offline for a few days and catching up with work.

I do not have anything other than the real CVS running on a
Linux box to try this change (most notably I do not do Eclipse
nor Tortoise) myself and I am reluctant to touch things I cannot
personally test at this stage near the release.

Fair enough. I'll give it whirl later tonight. For a quick test, you can always

export CVS_SERVER=/home/martin/src/git/git-cvsserver.perl
cvs update

tested this for his own use in his environment, but I would
really appreciate a third party Ack from an environment
different from the originator of the patch.

Yup. Will test later tonight.
