"oh, yeah, I was gonna move the HEAD today," cvs tag, cvs do lots of
stuff to move HEAD, right in the middle of you doing a bunch of
pre-release commits. Eek.
I'm confused. How do you move HEAD? "HEAD" (and "BASE")
are
special-cased revision names. From cvs-1.10.8/src/cvs.h:
/*
* Special tags. -rHEAD refers to the head of an RCS file, regardless of any
* sticky tags. -rBASE refers to the current revision the user has checked
* out This mimics the behaviour of RCS.
*/
#define TAG_HEAD "HEAD"
#define TAG_BASE "BASE"
I don't think you can override these (but I could be wrong).
