 4 Revisions
 ***********
 
 For many uses of CVS, one doesn't need to worry too much about revision
 numbers; CVS assigns numbers such as `1.1', `1.2', and so on, and that
 is all one needs to know.  However, some people prefer to have more
 knowledge and control concerning how CVS assigns revision numbers.
 
    If one wants to keep track of a set of revisions involving more than
 one file, such as which revisions went into a particular release, one
 uses a "tag", which is a symbolic revision which can be assigned to a
 numeric revision in each file.
