Question about branch tags

Is it possible to have two branch tags refer to one actual branch?

 

Do to some timing and personal weirdness there is a situation here where we would like to

have two branches merge together. But be accessable (at least for a while) by two different tags.

 

Example:

    BranchA and BranchB merge to COMMON_BRANCH.

 

            Would now like to have two “branch” tags (COMMON_OTHER and COMMON_BRANCH) that

That both pull the same branch when you check them out.

 

I saw an entry in the FAQ about “renameing” branches, that used the command:

        cvs admin -n <newbranchname>:<oldbranchname>
 
But I didn’t know if both tags would work interchangeably.
