Main difference is the absence of merge points. You may want to use three tags per merge (following the rule that you can't have too many tags, but you can have too few <g>): - Branch you merge to: tag the code before the merge. - Branch you merge to: tag the code after the merge. These two allow you to review later what happened during the merge. Maybe you find a strange bug later, and can trace it back to a merge error. Can be enlightening. - Branch you merge from: tag the code you are merging in. This code won't get changed by the merge, so it's the same before and after the merge. I think the latter two are what a cvsnt merge point is. Gerhard
