In a similar vein, VC (the Emacs generic front end) allows the user to
create a brand new RCS archive for a file under CVS control (it should work
with any rev-control backend, but IIRC it makes some ill chosen assumptions
about rev-numbers), do some commits into it and then commit the sum of all
those changes into CVS.

It's not what we want here, tho.
