The actions described above would look something like this: cvs rtag -rOldTag NewTag Module cvs rtag -d OldTag ..., i.e. the tag removal is always a separate and conscious action. > 2. what about new files added to myBranch?

So, yes, all files added to that branch will indeed automatically have that branch tag.
