That's interesting -- revision numbers should start at 1.

Don't.  Revision numbers are for internal CVS use.  You should never
care what they are.

You said the magic word: tag.  You should *tag* the files with a
meaningful label and ignore the revision numbers.  For example:

        cvs tag Rev_1_7
