Indeed! Thank you for correcting my mistake!
The same goes for the alternative "tag" command. Like here, the "-b" is
missing before the BRANCHTAG.

But: With "cvs rtag -r TAG BRANCHTAG MODULE", he already has the tag for
the branch point. Of course, it would be good if there is some
convention so he can recognize that this is the branch point for this
branch.

Personally, I would seldom delete a tag from the repository if not
absolutely necessary.
