Rather stupidly I have forgotten the name of a branch tag I

Amongst the many mind-bogglingly stupid design "features" of cvs,
this is one of them. About the best you can do is 'cvs log -h'
Mind bogglingly stupid though CVS is, you can use 'cvs status -v' to
see a complete list of tags and branches on a file. Now, you can't
actually see or know all of the tags and branches that may exist
within a repository. As such, I would suggest choosing a file that
has existed since the beginning of the repository when performing
such a query.
