And if the build fails due to some trivial reasons (some patches were
not committed to CVS before tagging, say), and you don't have to modify
the spec file before rebuilding, you can do this:

TAG_OPTS=-F make tag

(reuse the tag even though it's been created; this in effecttags the
files newly committed to CVS)

Use with caution, and *very* sparingly. If a build actually completes,
you're better off incrementing the release tag and then using the normal
'make tag' to create a new tag.

Cheers,
