[Python-Dev] release22-maint branch strangeness

> I've noticed some strangeness with the release22-maint branch.  I made
> a documentation change there this morning, and CVS gave the change a
> really weird version number when I checked it in.  Looking further, it
> looks like the previous checkin for that file (Doc/tut/tut.tex) has
> some strangeness as well.  The branching tags are also pretty
> whacked.  This is an excerpt of the "cvs log" for the file:

I think you must've used a tag to bvase your branch, and that tag was
already on a branch.
