CVS keeps marking unchanged files are conficts

[mark . jeronimus]

I'm using CVS within netbeans (7.3 and 8.0 beta) using the CVS IDE integration 
plugin.

In one particular project, the files in three particular directories are always 
marked as conflict, but when trying to resolve conflicts, the option is not 
available, and on diff there are 0/0 changes.

These directories have nothing different compared to many many other 
directories.

I compared the date+time in Cvs/Entries and they match exactly. I've found 
revisions in Cvs/RevisionCache/*#HEAD and those files are identical to the main 
files (same hash)


Here's what I tried already:

-Delete files locally
-Cannot CVS Commit since it claims they are remotely modified,
-CVS update, now the files appear again, but also a lot of empty directories 
appear that I deleted long ago and a second later they all disappear again 
(like, wtf?)
-Delete files locally
-CVS Commit (now they should be out of the repository... verified by trying 
Update twice)
-Copy backups of the files back to the folders
-CVS Commit (they are in the repository again)
-CVS Update -- now it claims there are remote conflicts again!!!

Does anyone know how to solve this?
