Hi I've got a problem with CVSNT not knowing about my tags. I found the following on the web: >> cvs [checkout aborted]: no such tag tag This message means that CVSNT isn't familiar with the tag tag. Usually this means that you have mistyped a tag name; however there are (relatively obscure) cases in which CVSNT will require you to try a few other CVSNT commands involving that tag, before you find one which will cause CVSNT to update the `val-tags' file; see discussion of val-tags in 2.2.2 File permissions. You only need to worry about this once for a given tag; when a tag is listed in `val-tags', it stays there. Note that using `-f' to not require tag matches does not override this check; see A.5 Common command options. << Like the text states, cvsnt seems not to register tags I define in the CVSROOT/val-tags file. What does "CVSNT will require you to try a few other CVSNT commands involving that tag, before you find one which will cause CVSNT to update the `val-tags' file" mean? Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks, Mark
