Hiya
I have a checked out branch in my working directory and I want to create a new
tag on it. Is cvs smart enough to only create the tag on the branch, or do I
have to manually specify the branch name?
E.g. can I use
'cvs tag NEW_TAG_ON_BRANCH'
or do I have to use
'cvs tag NEW_TAG_ON_BRANCH -r MY_CHECKED_OUT_BRANCH'
I tried using the former method, but when I checked a ',v' file in the
repository I couldn't see anything that related the branch tag to the branch.
The new tag's ID was 1.13, but the branch was 1.13.0.2; I somehow expected
the new tag to have an ID related to the branch number (1.13.0.2.1 or something).
Cheers,
--Jon
