cvs remove -f <filename>
should do the trick for you.

This one I'm not sure I understand. What is it you need that
cvs up -CdP -r NEW_BRANCH_NAME
does not get you?

You might be able to do this with 'cvs history', but you'll have to do
some massaging of the output. The docs show the data that can be
retrieved.
<http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.21/cvs_18.html#SEC182>
and I'm not sure if you'll be able to distinguish a branch tag from a
standard tag. Perhaps a taginfo script on the server
<http://ximbiot.com/cvs/manual/cvs-1.11.21/cvs_18.html#SEC179>
that records only branch tags as they are added?
