No, but we don't recommend creating branches for individual files, so
other than the need to do a 'cvs update' first we generally know that
$file is going to be on the same branch that the whole sandbox is.  I have
one project with 3 sandboxes checked out on different branches, so 'pwd'
tells me exactly where I am.

The -v option to cvs status may be useful if you're not interested in
seeing all the commit logs but still want to see the tags on a file BTW.
