One _can_ check the status of the file before, but this requires a further call to the cvs server, which might be time consuming if many files should be edited. The error comes up, when the file is commited. But actually the error happened before. >> 2) have a sticky (non-branch) tag?

You can work it out by looking for .0. in the tag output > (from the log output on the file). The same as above is here: 1. log must be called for every file and 2. the error comes up on commit, although it happened on edit. Christian
