I rarely (if ever) use rtag. The reason is that "cvs rtag module" will tag the
Latest and Greatest (LAG) by default. Since, one is never really sure exactly
what is in the LAG, one will never really be sure exactly what's being tagged
(hey, I'm a poet and I don't even know it ;) unless, as you said, you specify
exactly what to rtag (but this is rarely useful).

Subject: cvs tag vs. rtag
Can someone give me a pointer on when to use cvs tag vs. when to use cvs
rtag? I know, for example, that cvs tag doesn't show up in the history
file, and that cvs rtag requires you? I think? to feed it the revision
number of whatever you're tagging, thus preventing you from saying "cvs
rtag the tree the way it is now". What common situations is each
command used in?
Cheers,
Laird
