You have to use the cvs status command and then parse the output
yourself.
Note that the branch and tag concept applies to *files* not the other
way around, so there is no way to get branch information without
checking all files using cvs status or cvs log and then analyze the
result.

If you enable the DB auditing on your CVSNT server then you can more
easily extract tag (and therefore branch) information using database
queries. But this of course will apply only to tag operations done
*after* the auditing is started.
