Okay. So, just to be clear, this is actually a 3-step process:
1. Checkout branch:
   cvs co -r <branchname> <module>
2. Rename from sandbox:
   cd to root of module in sandbox
   cvs admin -n newname:oldname
3. Delete original tag name sandbox:
   cd to root of module in sandbox
   cvs tag -d oldname

Correct?
