Retagging files using the new CVS



A "feature" of the new CVS system is that you can no longer "retag" your
application simply by typing the cvs tag command again. If you do you
will get something that looks like this:

devlla1 195: cvs tag GpibInteract-1-1 .
cvs tag: Tagging .
cvs tag: Tagging src
cvs tag: Tagging vxcmd
W vxcmd/startup.GpibInteract : GpibInteract-1-1 already exists on
version 1.1 : NOT MOVING tag to version 1.2
cvs tag: Tagging vxcmd/R313

To retag an application you must add the -F parameter to the cvs tag
command:

devlla1 196: cvs tag -F GpibInteract-1-1 .
cvs tag: Tagging .
cvs tag: Tagging src
cvs tag: Tagging vxcmd
T vxcmd/startup.GpibInteract
cvs tag: Tagging vxcmd/R313

It may be a while before I get around to fixing the GUI interface (I'll
try to get it in there as soon as possible). So, for now, if you need to
retag your applications, use the command line as shown above.
