Exactly. I was going to respond to Alain, but Mike did such a good job.

So I'll only add that what you probably want, Alain, is "cvs tag" and
it's 
thoroughly explained in the CVS manual.

Hello Alain,

I'm sure, you never read the CVS manual or you simply do not understand
it.

Each file has it's own revision, you do not need to give all your file
you want to commit one special revision. In 99,99% of the cases you need
not to bother with any revision at all -- only if you want to *get* (aka
"update") a special revision. In general, the option "Commit to
revision" makes really less sense. It just could be useful to put all of
your files to revision 2.0 or 3.0 because your product has the version
2.0 or 3.0. But the cvs manual discourages you to do this.

Mike
