Here's the magic invocation to bring stuff from main trunk to a branch.
In the branch, do
cvs update -j HEAD
but do this only with great care. The whole point of having the release
branch is that things can change drastically in the main branch and not
disturb the release branch. Using -j can transfer a whole lot of stuff
you don't want.
