Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to CVS branches - 4.5 vs. devel (default)

Posted by Tilmann Singer on
Suppose someone has by accident committed a bugfix to the development branch, and the output of cvs log now looked like this:

$ cvs log spam-edit-postgresql.xql 

RCS file: /cvsroot/openacs-4/packages/spam/www/admin/spam-edit-postgresql.xql,v

==============================

What would have to be done to move the latest version (1.2) of this file into the oacs-4-5 branch? My guess from reading the cvs manpage is something like this:

cvs rtag -b -F -r 1.2 oacs-4-5 spam-edit-postgresql.xql

Would that be correct?
