be tags. maybe in the next 1/2 hour or so (though it's 1am here, and i'm exhausted), if you reverse these, and use the wrong convention for a tag or a branch, the cvs tag command will fail with a more helpful message like:
% cvs tag DRUPAL-5 ... ERROR: "DRUPAL-5" is a valid name for a branch, but not a tag. You must either use the -b option with your cvs tag command if you wish to create a branch, or choose a valid tag name. See http://drupal.org/handbook/page/here for info about valid branch and tag names.
just watch http://drupal.org/node/90969 for progress on this topic.
For improving the CVS script messages, I give Derek a +9! :-) I'm swamped with migrating about 50 sites from 4.6 to 4.7 right now, but I look forward to using the New, Improved CVS and Project system, and branching my modules for 5.0. Having good infrastructure is worth its weight in gold. ..chrisxj
