Can someone tell me if the following is supposed to work?

I have a directory  c:\testprojects\p2 that is in a module testprojects
I have a tag on p2 "testtag"


I want to check this out.

in a different directory
cvs co -r testtag testprojects\p2

This complains about testtag not being a tag, but if I 

cvs co testprojects\p2
cvs update -r testtag testprojects\p2\*

It seems to work.  Is this the normal way to do things?

 I am a little nervous about what this does for files that have been 
added or removed between Head and testtag.


Thanks, 

Carl
