I forgot to mention, I am using SVN (subversion).  I solved my immediate
problem by going to a terminal command line and using svn delete, move,
add etc.  Followed by commit.  Returned to emacs and updated.
Everything worked.

So I am not completely stymied, but I had hoped that I could do
everything within emacs. e.g. as I found out on this list vc register =
svn add; and vc rename = svn move.  I hoped there might be a vc
"whatever" = svn delete.
