Tag A is applied to a set of files.

Tag B is applied to a subset of those same files.

 

I realize it's unusual, but the files with tag B need to have tag A
deleted. 

The files with tag B also need to be removed from CVS.

 

I checkout the project at tag B. 

I delete tag A from those files.

 

History shows tag A is gone.

 

Now, I cvs remove those files. I receive typical confirmation and output
on

commit.

 

A checkout of HEAD still has these files.

History shows that tag B is gone on those files.

 

I believe they aren't removed because I didn't update them from the

sticky tag to HEAD before removing them.

 

What I do not understand is why tag B is gone?

 

I can reproduce this effect every time.

 

 

Thank you,

Shawn Matlock
