Saw lots of responses to this with various options to "cvs co"...
In the past, people have mentioned that "cvs rdiff -s" works well.

cvs rdiff -s -r 0 -r some_tag some_module

Gives you not just the filenames, but the revisions numbers too
(Assumes you have no file with a revision of 0, which you don't
most likely.)

example:
address@hidden usrc]$ cvs rdiff -s -r 0 -r efs_x42_dev_br autobuild
cvs server: Diffing efs/unix/autobuild
File efs/unix/autobuild/autobuild is new; current revision 1.11.2.1
File efs/unix/autobuild/autobuild.html is new; current revision 1.4
File efs/unix/autobuild/build_warning is new; current revision 1.3
File efs/unix/autobuild/devel_list.txt is new; current revision 1.10.2.2
File efs/unix/autobuild/dist_list.txt is new; current revision 1.12.2.2
[...etc...]
