Here's a data point for you: I've never used CVS tags or frozen
versions in my life. I use CVS to document changes; to embed version
info into source modules; to synchronize changes between environments;
to clone a library to another machine, and in my "real job," to
synchronize with multiple developers.
My suggestion is for you to get used to CVS check-in/out, update and
commit, and that will probably be all you need.
