I think the problem is the start and end points of your merge. If I have a trunk, and I created a branch from that trunk, tagging it at the point it was created, I would use the following to merge the branch back into the trunk:
-j branch_CREATED -j branch Often this can simply be abbreviated as -j branch If you are doing something more complicated than this, please tell us the structure of the branches involved. There are additional details on this subtle and complex feature here, in the manual under the "Branching and Merging" section: http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.11.7/cvs_5.html#SEC54 I advise you to read it carefully, or you will get into trouble.
