cvs tag usage

I am confused about the usage of the tag for src.

I took a look at the web pages and found the following choices:

_7_BP
_7_2_BP
_7_2_0_RELEASE
_7_2

But could not find anything that told me where -p2 fits into this!!


# uname -a

7.2-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE-p2 #0: Wed Jun 24 00:14:35 UTC 2009     
root at amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64

To synchronize src do I use:

*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_7_2
will this automatically track the latest version in 7_2  and therefore keep 
track with 7.2-RELEASE-p2 or later??

or
do I need to use something like:

*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_7_2-p2

Where can I find some explanation on this?

Thanks in advance

David
