The CVS Browse Tags dialog box enables you to select an available branch or tag for the selected file or folder.
This dialog box is invoked by clicking the Browse button next to the Tag Name field or Branch field in the CVS Tag or CVS Branch dialog. It can also be invoked from the CVS Checkout dialog when checking out files from the repository. Select the desired tag by expanding the Branches or Tags node and choosing a tag from the list. You can also select HEAD if you want to select the entire trunk.
