> By the time I got involved there were over 200 of these folders on the network drive, it was unclear which one if any represented the head revision, and the machine with CVS on it had long ago been lost and existed only as a legend. Fortunately, DVCSs don't have that problem because the meta-information is stored in a folder within the source. So unless the non-developer deletes that folder in every single project, then the information won't be lost (but it wouldn't get updated either). |

I can think of at least two ways off the top of my head to move the source from folder A to folder B while leaving hidden folders behind. They both assume you're using a graphical file explorer, like non-developers are likely to do.
