What? ``Symbolic tag of the current release'' isn't a CVS concept;
there is no notion of a current release. That is an ontology which you
impose on your tags, usually by applying some kind of software release
process.
The (perhaps ill-named) cvs release command implements a discipline for
destroying a checked out copy. It has nothing to do with making a
software release.
