Hey thanks for that... I followed that side of it, but the problem I had was that I had modified a file (against the HEAD revision or 'mainline'), then before I committed it, I created a new branch. After that I could not commit it (at least I couldn't with TortoiseCVS, although I think there was a manual step I could make).Yeah had already seen that... although I understand in concept, I'm having trouble transferring that to 'real life'.... Maybe this week I'm operating in dummy mode ;-) I need more sleepBasically, a sticky tag lets your local copy "stick to" a particular revision. It's as if you are stuck to, or glued to, a specific revision or branch. Until you clear the stickiness, CVS will always do its operations against the specific revision you have checked out (unless it's a branch tag). Without a sticky tag in place, CVS will always do its operations against the HEAD revision.
Cheers
