 OK, so may be I do not use the right command to get what I want.
 All I need is to list files that will be checkout if I use the specified
 tag (ie the list of files that will be displayed when I checkout but
 without actually checkout them). That's what I get if I use the cvs
rlog
 command with the simple tag. But how get the list of files of a tagged
 branch? Do I need to use another command?

 Thanks in advance
Maybe cvs -qn checkout -rBRANCH ?

It should work but I reveive the following error:
cvs [checkout aborted]: there is no version here; run 'cvs checkout' first
I searched google but found no solution with this problem

There aren't any revisions actually on the branch yet (the root is not
on the branch), which is why you're not getting any results.  I don't
think that's a bug, but it might be possible to convince me otherwise.

It seems to me that the root is on the branch, in the sense that
cvs up -rBRANCH will yield it (i.e. it's on the branch in the
CVS sense, even if not in the RCS sense).

However, I can see wanting to ask either question:
  - For which files has someone actually committed something to
the branch?

  - Which files have branch tag X, i.e. which files will be in my
sandbox if I do cvs update -rX?

So it's hard to argue that either of the two behaviours is
correct or a bug; either one could be what the user's looking
for.

It's the same difference as that between cvs log -rX:Y and
-rX::Y.
