Hi, I have a desire to rename a branch tag. I realize it's easy/straightforward to rename fixed tags, but was wondering if the same thing was true for branch tags. I suspect not. Is this something that CVSNT can do? For example: 1. Develop on the trunk (v1.0). 2. Branch for speculative v1.1 effort (use V1_1_BRANCH as the branch tag). 3. Stop branch development, merge v1.1 into the trunk. 4. Continue v1.1 effort on the trunk. 5. Release v1.1 and branch (ideally using V1_1_BRANCH as the branch tag) for ongoing v1.1 patch releases. I'd like the v1.1 patch release to occur on a branch with tag V1_1_BRANCH. Unfortunately the original (speculative) branch (step 2) used this name. Ideally I'd like to rename the original branch something like V1_1_BRANCH_OLD (or some such), prior to step 5 so that I might create the new branch with the name V1_1_BRANCH. If this isn't possible I'll just live with a different name for this case, just wondered if there was perhaps a way for CVSNT to rename branch tags generally. Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions. -David
