We really should update the wiki with a proper, more detailed
description how to update a package.

The section "How do I update an existing package in CVS?" on
http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/UsingCvsFaq#head-7f697c90440af1ee38c3627531ccbfbb918b3267
should be enhanced (maybe it should be a separate page in the wiki).
Something like "run 'cvs diff -u' before committing changes and look if
everything is okay" should also find its way into it. And questions like
"I uploaded foo-1.1.tar.bz2 in the devel branch -- do I have to
re-upload it in the FC-4 branch?" should be answered there as well. 

Any volunteers?
