From the man page, I'm not really sure where it makes a difference other than when someone is playing with IFS, but $@ seems to be more of what I intended... And in case anyone is still reading this now, I'd like to throw out the suggestion that CVS_LOCAL_BRANCH_NUM should really be an option to cvs rtag and should thereby be settable in one's .cvsrc file and the option should get transmitted to the cvs pserver, eliminating the kind of asymmetry I just documented.
