How to checkout a tagged version rather than the HEAD from CVS using IntelliJ?

Question

I need to checkout a tagged version (not the head) from CVS using IntelliJ. I am not going to change the tagged version but only to test on it.

It is very easy to be done in Eclipse. But in IntelliJ IDEA, I do not have any idea. (I am beginning to doubt that it is an easy-to-use IDE ...)

Please help.

When in "Check out from CVS Repository" on pulling a new project. Click configure on the right, This will open up your CVS connections. hit the copy button in the middle and make a new one and then pick your tag "BY Tag" then you don't have to worry about syncing that project cause it will be tied to the branch
