Hi all,

When doing the following:

- Tag items in the HEAD
- Browse branch and checkout Tag
- Code appears with the Tag label

Updating a file and committing, NetBeans throws:

    "CVS Command failed with the following error:
    cvs commit: sticky tag `A' for file `somefile' is not a branch
    cvs [commit aborted]: correct above errors first!"

Is this a known issue, or something that should not be done?

Is it possible to add a new file with a Tag into CVS through NetBeans?


I understand branches could be used, but would like to understand if 
Tags are usable in this scenario.

Thanks in advance,
Matt
