Try using the 'export' command. The idea, I think, is that with a checkout you
might be temped
to modify the code thus invalidating the Name keyword, whereas with an export it
is explicit that
you should not furthur modify the code.

Subject: $Name$ Keyword does not expand
Federal Record Status Not Determined
Hi there !
I would like to use the $Name$ Keyword in my java source. To do this, I added
the line:
public final static String cvsRelease = new String("$Name$");
to my source. Then, I tagged it "prerelease-1_0". To get the substitution, I
executed
cvs -d ":pserver:address@hidden:/usr/local/cvsroot" checkout -r
prerelease-1_0 UserAccount
but the line just expanded to
public final static String cvsRelease = new String("$Name: $");
I thought, there should stand "$Name: prerelease-1_0$" ??? Other tags
($id$...) work just fine.
The log says, the tag is there:
address@hidden: > cvs -d ":pserver:address@hidden:/usr/local/cvsroot"
