What is the full command line you are using for your checkout? By "fresh
checkout" do you mean you are using an empty directory or are you
running a new checkout where there already is one?

Subject: cvs [update aborted]: missing expected branch

Hi ppl,

This is how I messed up. :(

I added a branch tag to a file.
Immediately, by accident,  I deleted the branch tag from the same file.
Then, I used cvs admin -o to delete the file revision created by that
branch tag

Now when I try to update my local copy with the branch, I get an error
"cvs [update aborted]: missing expected branch"

If I try to do a fresh checkout of the branch, I get the same error.

Please help me to get rid of this error.

Thanks,
mist.
