What's supposed to happen if Wednesday's changes depend on Monday's and
Tuesday's changes? (For instance, if the developer created a file on
Monday and then edited it on Wednesday.)

If this is only supposed to work when there are no dependencies, then
you can do it with CVS ("cvs update -j tuesday-tag -j wednesday-tag",
then "cvs update -j base-tag -j tuesday-tag"). Perhaps there is some
other requirement you haven't mentioned?
