I use cvsup. But thats not relevant here. Yes, cvsup would delete any
local tags/branches and sync the tree. But then I don't sync the tree very
often. And when I need to sync my work with CVS HEAD, I create
all the required diffs, sync the tree and reapply the patches (and commit
and tag) the tree again. Thats some work, but is I am OK with that
because as I said we don't need to sync with head that often.
