how do I know that a branch has been merged into trunk from cvs log

[pouneh mortazavi]

I have a module with lots of old branches and lots of revisions. Is there 
anyway for me to follow the branches and figure out which ones were merged 
into the truck, and which ones were not? Through cvs log?

to give a real world example, as a qa person, I am responsible for assigning 
release tags to modules. There are developers working on different branches 
all the time. To tag the trunk, I want to *make* sure that the branch was 
merged before I do the tagging. I could of course, check the files and see 
the changes, but I just want to check the entire module with one command 
line.

you could say that I should always tag the trunk after merging back the 
branch, but that brings possibility of human error. What if there are 
several qa people who can merge branches back onto trunks??

cheers!
