|I have a user who created a branch tag on a file and wishes to have it removed. Nothing was committed to the branch. CVS refuses to delete the tag. Is it because there was no commit to the branch? The message I get from CVS (version |1.11.9) is |cvs tag: Not removing branch tag `cr-1577' from '/home/cvsroot/internetservices/Ecare/html/care/MICCcontactForm.html,v'.
By default, since 1.11.2, CVS refuses to delete and move branch tags unless you tell it you know that you are disturbing a branch tag using the `-B' option to tag or rtag. This is because disturbing branch tags is usually a VERY VERY VERY etc. bad idea. If you are really certain that the branch has never been used then it shouldn't be a big deal to delete it.
