Yes, use the command:

  cvs up -j1.2 -j1.1 filename

to merge into your working copy of the file a version that tries to remove

The above notice is in poor taste went sent to a public mailing list. I
suggest you consider asking your postmaster to read

as well as see what has been said on the info-cvs list in the past:

concerning this topic.
