Hi,
That's the way I find it!
For a few files (<10), I would just update each of them.
For more files (~100), I did the following:
1o Tag my working sandbox with tag FUTURE_GOOD_BUILD (cvs tag FUTURE_GOOD_BUILD ...)
2o Check out using tag BEST_TODAY in another sandbox, and tag it FUTURE_GOOD_BUILD too (cvs tag -F FUTURE_GOOD_BUILD ...) ~ notice the "-F" option this time
3o Go back to the first sandbox, and do an update using the tag FUTURE_GOOD_BUILD to fetch the files "BEST_TODAY"
This seems to work; still, it would have been less painful with one single command.
Thanks for the response.
