rtag--Add a tag to the RCS file

You can use this command to assign symbolic tags to particular, explicitly specified source revisions in the repository. rtag works directly on the repository contents (and requires no prior checkout). Use tag instead (see section tag--Add a symbolic tag to checked out version of RCS file), to base the selection of revisions on the contents of your working directory.

If you attempt to use a tag name that already exists, CVS will complain and not overwrite that tag. Use the `-F' option to force the new tag value.
