If getting sticky tag for file "is not a branch" error when trying to do cvs ci,
Just run cvs update -A on these files to revert your working copy to the head
revisions. If you made changes, they should be patched to the latest versions.
The update -A will clear sticky tags so you can proceed.

Thanks a millin to post such a nice note to public.
ditto. very helpful tip.
solved my problem, thanks a ton!
Thanks. Helped me out.
If anyone is taking the easy way out like me and using SmartCVS, you need to do a Switch (Special Update) and choose Main Trunck's Head (reset sticky) to resolve this.
Thank you, it solved my problem
Hellelujah, yes, thank you! I just wanted to know how to fix it so I could get on with my work!
Thank you for the post! That helped a lot
I'm a long way from being a CVS expert, but surely you need to emphasise that this puts the file which should probably be on a branch, back into head?
Brilliant - thank you!
saved my ass ;) tvm
SIMPLESET WAY:
Right click on Project-->Team-->Switch to another branch or version---> Switch to head or the branch you want to.
Problem solved.
