Re: How do I tag only on branched module

[Mike Ayers]

	I'm going to take my best shot at this, although I'm not entirely 
certain what the situation is.  I believe your problems stem largely 
from your use of `cvs rtag` instead of `cvs tag`.  As I understand it, 
you have a trunk and two branches, and are making changes, sometimes 
to more than one branch at a time, and wish to label after every 
change.  To do this properly, you should have three sandboxes, one for 
each branch (you can also do this by changing the branches of a single 
sandbox, see Cederqvist for details).  After each checkin, run `cvs 
update` on the sandboxes for the branches, then `cvs tag` from tbe 
root of the sandboxes you wish to tag.
