Pitfalls when using SNiFF+ with CVS

Both SNiFF+ and CVS keep a database of your software structure and what files belong to a specific version; similarly, SNiFF+ and CVS use different methods to handle working environments with branches: while CVS uses "sticky tags" to make sure branch versions are checked in into the correct branches again, SNiFF+ uses working environments with "Default Configurations" for that purpose.
It is important that SNiFF+ and CVS information are kept in sync: particularly when Shared Working Environments are checked out with CVS sticky tags it is important to make sure that all Private Working Environments based on these use the same default configuration.
