My current usecase is: mico-2.3.13-r4[2] uses version 0.1 for the set of patches[3]. While I have to add a new patch into [3] (and bump to patchset-0.2), I still want to be able to recreate the patchset-0.1 content from VCS if necessary. My idea was to set a CVS-Tag on [3] for what is in each patchset version, but as I don't see /any/ (according to ViewVC) CVS-Tag on [1], I'm unsure... So what are your workflows here? Thank you!
