We are using cvs export -r with revision numbers all the time using cvsnt version 1.11.1.4 in apparent contradiction to the statement that cvsnt has never accepted that. Snippet from batch file executed by us, whenever we rebuild one of our projects. I do not think the extra args influence the -r operation: ... echo Exporting Jacarta DBCP library... cvs -q checkout -p -r 1.1 Mitatools/Jakarta/commons-dbcp-1.1/lib/commons-dbcp-1.1.jar > %project_home%\java\lib\commons-dbcp-1.1.jar echo Exporting Jacarta pool library... cvs -q checkout -p -r 1.1 Mitatools/Jakarta/commons-pool-1.1/lib/commons-pool-1.1.jar > %project_home%\java\lib\commons-pool-1.1.jar ... I agree that using symbolic tags in -r is the "cleanest" procedure. However, to state that it just doesn't make sense to use the "raw" revision numbers is not entirely correct in my opinion - at least when exporting individual files.
