Branching retroactively.

[Gautam Gopinadhan]

Hi,
   I am facing a small problem with our cvs
repository. The problem is as follows:

Main
|
|
|
|--------------Br1
|               |
|               |
|               X------(Br2: Desired branch by date)
|               |
|               |
Main_Latest     Br1_Latest

The tree is as given. I would like to branch out at
the location X by specifying the date. 

I tried the following:
I checked out the Br1 branch, and then did the
following:
cvs tag -b -D 10/09/05 Br2 

However this command seems to make a branch from Main
rather than the from Br1. Is there a command that will
enable me to do what I have shown in the diagram?


Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Gautam.
