RE: Branch tag broke my CVS - how can I repair it?

[Conrad T. Pino]

1. Delete the branch tag from the problem file:

        cvs tag -Bd cm_av_bug321 access_log.c

2. Delete working copy of the file:

        rm access_log.c

3. Update file and remove sticky tag:

        cvs update -A access_log.c

4. Retag the file:

        cvs tag -b cm_av_bug321 access_log.c

5. Switch to branch for all files:

        cvs update -r cm_av_bug321

Good luck.
