I'm surprised CVS didn't already choke on that one. The -A (aka "remove
sticky") and -r (aka "retrieve rev./tag/branch") options are mutually
exclusive.

As the message says: you cannot add a file on a non-branch tag. Look here
for a FAQ entry on a related issue (the same actually but the error message
is slightly different): http://cvsgui.sf.net/newfaq.htm#sticky_nocommit .

Hope this helps.
