Ok, the file is now outside tag.
It has been deleted from client side.
File can be found in Attic folder on server side.
My question 1 is : how should I reassign tag to this file ?
Is it OK to checkout the file only with a date,
then tag it with exactly the same tag name as before ?
Question 2 : as, in my opinion, the are no reason to
remove a file from a tag, since the tag is here to
keep version history, it's a way to named a moment
versus remember the exact date with second precision.
So could CVS server developper remove this dangerous feature ?
The rules could be no commit on a tag.
(OK to commit in a branche, but not in a tag).

Objet : RE: TAG and file removing
Have you tried to check out the tagged version of the module?
I'm sure you will find it contains the removed file, just as you want.
(That's what the Attic is for - to store files that are not
in the head revision of the trunk, so that they can still be
included when a tagged version of the module is check out.)

Subject: TAG and file removing
Hello,
A developper had removed a file in a tagged module.
How is it possible ?
Am I missing something ?
I thought a tag in a module was like a picture of all files revision
number of the module, so you can later checkout the module with
the tag name.
But if it's possible to remove file
(remove and commit !!! It's really in the Attic folder on
server side)
Then, how will I be able to checkout module with tag name ?
The resulting checkedout module will not reflect the one I had when I
tagged it !
I thought you had to create branch in order to modify a tagged module
...
Help ! I'm disapointed !!
(
There was some threads in the archive,
but the answers was not clear enought.
= is it OK or not to remove file from client side in a taged module ?
!= removng a tag. I don't speak of removing a tag.
)
Thanks CVS users !
