cvs update $Name: $ expansion

I can't get $Name: $ to expand on an update in my script below.

It works when checking out. But, do I really have to do a checkout?

Because a clean checkout every night would be expensive over a crappy
connection.


debian$ cat test.sh
DATE=`date +%s`
TAG=test_$DATE
MODULE='t'

echo Tagging module: $MODULE with tag: $TAG

# Snapshot the module in the repo
cvs rtag $TAG $MODULE

# Updating to that snapshot
cvs update -r $TAG

tag="$Name:  $"
echo $tag |sed 's/^.*: //;s/ .*$//'
