 =====Making a branch=====
-A new branch can be created at the place a tag was applied, then changes can be committed into the new branch as follows:
+Change to the directory containing the code you want to brach from (ex. use ''cvs co -r [tagname]'' to branch old tagged code).\\
+Now you can add the branch by issuing the following command:
 <code>
-cvs rtag -r [tagname] [new branchname] [my_module]
+cvs tag -b [new branchname]
-cvs update -r [new branchname]
 </code>
 Finish changes to the working directory, then
 <code>
 cvs commit
+</code>
+Example branching at revision tag ''R1'':
+<code>
+cvs -d /mnt/data/CVSHOME co -r R0_3_3 miav
+cd miav
+cvs tag -b stable_0_3
+# do some changes in the code
+cvs commit -m"Made a change in a branch"
 </code>
