There is no way to get modules to appear under my branch. We have defined our module in the "modules" file of CVSROOT. We use it as a convienient way to load a set of projects from the repo easily, because our repo contains literally hundreds of projects. See the newsgroup thread '2.1 rc1 [cvs] What happened to "show modules"'.
Performing the following steps to have your module appear under a branch or version: 1) Expand HEAD 2) Select the module 3) Choose "Configure Branches and Versions" from the context menu 4) Select a file in the upper left hand pane (expand folders as needed to find an appropriate file). The tags should appear in the upper right hand pane. 5) Choose "Add Checked Tags" 6) Optionally choose "Add selected Files" to add the selected file to the auto- refresh list. Future "Refresh from Repository" actions will then use that file to discover new tags. Do these steps work for you?
yes, it worked. It took me a few minutes to find a project that had files in the HEAD stream; the reason it didn't work before is I didn't search hard enough. I guess I would have expected it to find a .project or .classpath file under any project and find all the tags. Is this what should happen if "configure branches and versions" was enabled when selecting the module under "Versions"?
The action for this bug is to document this workflow. Other bugs will be used to track how to improve the workflow in the future (see bug 34413).
