By "administrative files" I meant the things the CVS manual calls
administrative files -- modules, loginfo, commitinfo, editinfo, etc. 
The val-tags file is created automatically as needed, so you don't need
to do anything with it.  The history file is purely for your benefit --
CVS doesn't use it for anything -- so you don't need to do anything with
it, but if you want the history from the old repository you can just
append the old repository's history file to the end of the new
repository's history file.
