Hi.

If I do the following:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tmda co
    -r release-1-0 -d release-1-0 tmda

Then I'm going to get a directory that "follows" the latest code on the
1.0 branch, right?

If so, then I can do this:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tmda co
    -r HEAD -d release-1-1 tmda

to get a directory that "follows" the latest 1.1 code, right...

However, 1.1 won't always be the HEAD, so my release-1-1 directory will
(at some time in the future) morph into what's really release-1-2 or
release-1-3 directory.

I'd like to have release-1-1 be a synonym for HEAD right now, so I can:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/tmda co
    -r release-1-1 -d release-1-1 tmda

and create a separate directory for release-1-2 or release-1-3 etc. in the
future.

Is it possible with CVS to give HEAD a synonym branch label, then fork
this off later on, or do I just need to do this manually when 1.2 forks
and HEAD becomes 1.3?
