FWIW, I routinely use -dPAC for updating CVS repositories.

The 'A' means reset any sticky tags, and the 'C' means
move-and-rename (rather than delete) any locally modified
files.

This means that all of your local edits will be preserved
(rather than deleted) when you update your CVS repository.

Any contrary opinions welcomed!
