Some people download the newest version of CVS which (I think) is different than what is suggested for use with TGE CVS.

The docs show the settings for the newest version =)

Here is a link to the new Alpha Documentation that may make everything a little more clear:

Also, if you don't type anything, you get HEAD by default

That is only true if you didn't previously specify a tag. If you did then you need to check the "Reset any sticky date/tag/'-k' options" on the "Update settings" tab. If you don't it will continue to check out the file using the previous tag.

Good catch nonetheless
to sum it up :
--> When you check out any module for the first time, if you enter nothing, it will default to getting HEAD.
--> When you update your local copy, if you leave it empty, it will use the same tag as the initial checkout. If you want to update to another tag/branch, you have to do what Dan said

..Unless the tag you specified the first time was HEAD :)Good catch nonetheless
