I was thinking on apllying some constraints, i.e. just considering the whole
project's branches in a recursive behaviour. If one wants to see the branches of
a subdir or a single file, he could specify it as an argument.
Also it could enforce some specific behaviour to be expected from CVS users,
such as a standard tag naming, tagging branch creation points, etc.
