command isnt correct. Depending on the cvs version you are using it should be:
cvs tag [-bcdFflR] [-r rev|-D date] tag [files...] -b Make the tag a "branch" tag, allowing concurrent development. -c Check that working files are unmodified. -d Delete the given tag. -F Move tag if it already exists. -f Force a head revision match if tag/date not found. -l Local directory only, not recursive. -R Process directories recursively. -r rev Existing revision/tag. -D Existing date. >>>>> probably your commands misses the '-r' flag for the tag name. detlef -----Original Message----- From: otisg [mailto:otisg@;ureach.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 12:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Tagging CVS from Ant - errors Hello, I'm trying to tag the source under CVS using Ant. This is how I am trying to do it (IP is changed): <cvs cvsRoot=":pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/cvs/repository" package="mclass" command="tag -F my-tag Foo" noexec="true"> </cvs> I am getting this error: [cvs] Using cvs passfile: /home/otis/.cvspass [cvs] cvs server: nothing known about Foo [cvs] cvs server: nothing known about mclass [cvs] cvs [server aborted]: correct the above errors first! I looked through the mailing list archives, but didn't find any answers that worked for me. I tried using rtag instead of tag, too, without success.
