I need to figure out a way to create a branch off of an earlier tag.
We created a tag last week, when what we needed to do was create a
branch. Now files have changed, so it doesn't make any sense to
branch now, but we also can't lose those changes. Basically, I need
to go back in time and create a branch. Does CVS support time
travel? :)
If I do a "cvs checkout -r tagname" and then a "cvs tag -b
branchname" will this create a branch from the tag? We've been on
CVS now for about 2 1/2 years, but this is the first time we've
needed to try and branch.
I searched for this question, but wasn't able to find anything. I
apologize if this question has been asked and answered before.
Thanks!
matt.
