loosing branch when updating to a tag on the branch

Hi,

Obviously I am doing something wrong. I've just re-read the manual and I can't find my errror. I am sorry to waste time on what is something very simple, but I need help!

I am using cvs 1.11.5. client on one system and 1.10 on another. My working directory is a branch. "cvs status" confirms that my sticky bit is a branch. I have tagged several times on the branch, but whenever I try to update to the tag the result is that I get a new sticky bit with the tag, but I am now on the trunk and have lost the branch. Why?

Many thanks.
