Warning: Be very careful to specify any tag= fields correctly. Some
tags are valid only for certain collections of files. If you specify
an incorrect or misspelled tag, CVSup will delete files which you
probably do not want deleted. In particular, use only tag=. for the
ports-* collections.

Perhaps you should try a different tag.
