True, but what about a person doing cvs tag release_1_0_0 and later (half a year) cvs tag release_1_0_0? CVS will tell the person that the tag already exists... If (s)he thinks to be smart, (s)he might want to try cvs tag -f release_1_0_0 at which point you loose your release revision and there'll be no way to bug fix the client without feature upgrade. Of course you can say people shouldn't be too silly, but things go wrong when people work ;) Is a branch really expensive and difficult to manage if you don't touch it often?
