Life saving commands :)

To retag a file to a new version.
To move a symbolic tag to a different version (using the numeric number), use the following:

    cvs tag -r new-number -F symbolic-name filename

For example, if you needed to update foo.c after testing, and the symbolic tag MPICH2_1_0_3_rc1 originally pointed at version 1.16 for this file but the corrected version was 1.17, use

    cvs tag -r 1.17 -F MPICH2_1_0_3_rc1 foo.c
