Agree.
But our build process heavily depends on tags. It'll checkout/update all the
specified tags
and prepares a build file. And if I adopt to SVN instead of CVS I may need
to change my
build process too. How easy it is to migrate tags from PVCS/CVS to SVN ? And
are we
able to migrate as expected? If got chance please look for the thread
"*simulating
tags like* *CVS*" posted by me.
