If you have the full cvs repository, you can use cvs ("-T") to get a list of tag names, but cvsup does not currently support such an inquiry. If you are concerned with this, I'm sure cvsup's author (John Polstra) would be happy to consider patches to pass such a query through to the cvs database on the server machine.
