Hi again,

I've just been informed that this mechanism *is not* supported in non-EVS 
versions of CVSNT. Specifically, the deletion of branch tags, in particular 
when at least one alias tag is present, is not supported.

The method in the post you mention is still supported and is the recommended way to do it.

What isn't supported (but isn't specifically prevented) is removing the last reference to a branch - you can end up with no reference to any of the revisions in the branch, which causes problems.

The Evs branching mechanisms are completely different (in fact in evs you can't delete a branch in the way cvs does at all, merely mark it as deleted at that point - a branch is a versioned object just like everything else in evs).
