For a list of the most commonly-used tags, see: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvs-tags.html > For example, this morning I can cvsup to RELENG_4_6 and get the > 4.6.2-RELEASE UPDATING (at least, it contains the release point entry: > 20020814: > FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE. > > If i cvsup to the RELENG_4_6_2 tag, it wipes the src tree completely.

That's because the line that notes the date of 4.6.2-RELEASE wasn't added until after RELENG_4_6_2_RELEASE was tagged. You can use either "cvs log" or cvsweb.FreeBSD.org to check the relationship between the revision numbers of a file and the CVS tags.
