For example, how can I list all the branches for postgresql 8.3 (and 8.4)?
Now I can checkout code using:
cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anoncvs:password(at)anoncvs(dot)postgresql(dot)org:/projects/cvsroot
co -P pgsql

But I don't know when version it is, and I want get code from some
postgresql 8.3 and 8.4 branches but I don't know the their cvsroot

Thanks
