The tag Command
The tag command enables you to specify a tag name to a revision made to a file or a project. A tag bookmarks
the state of a project at the time it was assigned to the project. When used with the –b command option, it
creates branches in the repository.
For example, to create a new branch with the new_branch tag in the repository module, my_project, the syntax
is:
$ cvs tag –b new_branch my_project
You can delete a tag using the –d command option. Using the –c command option, you can check if a current
working file has changed, but a commit has not been invoked. CVS exits with an error and tags are not
created.
