Creating a tag


I'm trying to create a tag with "cvs tag".

I started that operation at 9:00 AM; it's now 10:36 AM.  I've been
watching "waiting for ...'s lock" messages go by that entire time.
(With different lognames and directories over that time period, but
with the same directories appearing more than once.)

Does CVS refuse to grab a lock for me until it can grab locks in all of
the directories at once, or some such?  (Such a protocol might be in
use to avoid deadlock.)

In any case, what am I supposed to do?  It looks like the load on the
tree is heavy enough that it may be days before the entire tree is
simultaneously unlocked.
