Handling Multiple Document Versions in CVS ?

I'm working on resolving this issue and owe the list a HOWTO, but to
put it succinctly:  tag and branch.

No help for it, but the graphics will just continue to be huge.  They
don't compress well and probably get uuencoded by CVS anyway.

Some bullets we just have to bite.
