If you go to the repository and run this :

You probably should back up your repository before doing this ...

        rcs -nNEWTAG:OLDTAG (on every RCS file that contains OLDTAG)

then this will create an alias (NEWTAG) for you.

Apart from going to each individual file and creating a tag manually that
corresponds to the tag you want, I can't think of any other way.

Why would you want such a thing ?
