But since the checkout retrieved the head of the vendor branch and I had removed file1 and added file5 at the 3rd import I expected the branch head to contain only files 2..5, but in fact all files came out. The updates I did to retrieve the tags were done both via WinCvs and on the command line with the same error result. Here is the result of cvs ver: Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.51 (client/server) Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.38 (client/server) (Yes my test server needs an update, but since it is also the one where I keep all of my "opensource" stuff like CVSMailer and the ViewCvs installer I don't want to mess too much with it.) /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
