Hi,
but it's not a branch I'm moving, it's a normal tag.
I tried it anyway
cvs rtag -a -F -B -r rel_5_1 latest_stable module_name
with the result that cvs refused to move anything:
cvs rtag: module_name/SomeFile: Not moving non-branch tag `latest_stable' from
1.1 to
1.2 due to `-B' option.
Which does make sense.
What we do now is delete and add
cvs rtag -d latest_stable module_name
cvs rtag -r rel_5_1 latest_stable module_name
It does what we want, it just takes looooonger :-)
