[cvsnt] rtag

[Keith D. Zimmerman]

Yup, we did all that, but I had too many tags in vss, tags that I didn't
want, or tags that should be renamed, etc, etc.  It's not really a
conversion issue, more of a management issue.

We did the same in my team - if you used vss2cvs.pl, there's also a
massage.pl file that 'massages' the data from the messages and puts it
correctly into the version information.

How did you convert from vss to cvs?

On certain files (not all) in my repository, when I do an rtag using
an
existing tag name, I get the message "There is no revision here..." 
It
was my understanding that rtag is not supposed to require a checked
out
copy, and therefore should work in this case...

Basicly, I am going through my repository and redoing all the tag
names.
The convert from source safe left them in an undesired state.  I fixed
the problem by doing cvs rlog -h and grabbing the revision number and
using it instead of the old tag name, and all is well, but it seemed
like a bit of a bug, to me at least...
