How do you "unupdate" a file

I updated a file by mistake and I'm not ready to integrate its changes with my current sandbox. An "update -r old.rev" will fix things up, but it sets a sticky tag.

I'll probably forget (call it a senior moment :-) to "update -A" until I thrash around a bit and figure out what's wrong. It would be nice to avoid the time wasted while thrashing around.

Is there some way to restore my sandbox to to the state before I did the mistaken update? It's probably possible to do some nasty things with the CVS/Entries file, but is there a cleaner way?

Thanks,
Fred
