<pre wrap="">Greetings all,
I have just committed my first module, and have arrived at the point where I
need to tag it. After 4 hours of searching and reading of forums, cvs man
pages, etc. I have come to the conclusion that there is something I do not
understand.
Simply stated, I have attempted every logical combinations of options for both
"cvs tag" and "cvs rtag". My attempts have all failed with:
--- start of error ---
Invalid tag for /contributions/modules/easylinks.
cvs rtag: Pre-tag check failed
cvs [rtag aborted]: correct the above errors first!
--- end of error ---
I have also attempted to use a GUI (Cervisia) in order to achieve this. The
result was exactly the same.
Is there perhaps something I need to do between committing my module and
tagging it, that I am missing?
Regards,
Athelas

The instructions I used to do this are in /contributions/FAQ.txt.<br>
<br>
Try this from the contributions directory:<br>
<br>
cvs tag -b DRUPAL-4-7 modules/mymodule<br>
<br>
(where 'mymodule' is the name of your module).<br>
<br>
It still seems a little mysterious to someone used to svn, but it seems
to have worked.<br>
