Re: info without working copy

[Francis Irving]

You can use the RCS command "rlog" directly on a ,v file in the
repository, but you have to have direct access to the filesystem that
the repository is on.

You can probably use another RCS command to make a tag, but then
things start to get dangerous, as you would be writing to the same
files as CVS is.
