    Description

      "/approved-entries" lists in the RepositoryMirror are applicable only
      to the path where they are originally made. However, when a path is
      copied, the "/a-e" entries are copied too. They then inhibit proper
      pruning. A symptom of this is that in main-cvsrepos,
      partial-prune/permanent is included in T_ALL_INITIAL_FILES, though
      this tag is not set on that file.
      
      The fix is to purge /a-e entries when /mutable entries are purged,
      when a revision is stabilized. This is sufficient, as revisions are
      only mutable whilst being constructed, and the current revision will
      never be copied from - hence with this modification, an /a-e entry
      will never be copied.
