=====Making a branch=====
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 tag -b [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>
