In the context of the discussion, I should have said either that "the tag" (meaning the tag we were talking about) or that "a branch tag" (meaning any branch tag) "needs to be created as a branch" (meaning using -b). Without my saying that, it does sound like I'm saying the wrong thing. Anyway, there's no harm (and probably some help, given my lack of clarity) in your clarifying it and I may still be wrong about the roundabout way of changing a label to a branch being the only way to use an existing CVS non-branch tag as a branch tag. daniel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
