branch/tag question

[Richard Boehme]

Hi there. A small question: I've looked through the manual and am 
confused about how to rename a branch, and how to change a copy of the 
repository to the main branch.

I have a branch, branch1 that I want to rename to branch1-newname, 
because calling it tag1 is misleading.

According to the manual, I think that the command for this is:

cvs tag -R branch1-newname

when I'm in a directory that I have checked out branch1 to.

Also, I'm unclear on how to revert to the main branch. For a particular 
branch, I can do:

cvs -r branch2 update

to get that branch. However, I don't think there's a name for the main 
branch that I can do -r on.

Thanks.

Richard
