Hi,

Is there a way of sorting tags according to the revisions that they tag?
Specifically I would like to find the latest tag that was put on a given
branch. (Suppose that all files in a  CVS project are always tagged
together, so in general I could take the output of "cvs log" for any single
file to see all tags.)

I don't mind writing a script to parse the output of "cvs log" in order to
extract the latest tag, but I still have a problem: What is one tags the
project, then removes a file (cvs remove, then cvs commit), and then tags
again? Will I be able to find out which of the two tags is newer? (And by
"newer", I don't mean the tag that was last put in the repository, because
one can tag older versions too.)

Thanks,
Shlomo
