Product Version = NetBeans IDE 5.0 Dev (Build 200601052030) Operating System = Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor; Home = 1.5.0_05; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_05-b05; Sun Microsystems Inc.; d:\Java\jdk1.5.0_05 Steps: 1. Open versioned project. 2. Select its file node and invoke "CVS | Tag" popup menu action. 3. Leave "Tag name" field empty, push "Tag" button. Error output: "cvs.exe [server aborted]: tag '' must start with a letter" It will be better to check for empty tag field. The same happens for "Branch" and "Switch to Branch" dialog.
