To move a tag, simply retag with the same tag but adding the -F option. If you retag a whole tree with -F, you only get "T filename" lines for files where the tag is actually moved. In this case I'd say leave it.

Note well: cvs tag -F works poorly in the presence of deleted files. I prefer to cvs rtag -d (delete) and retag the whole lot. Much safer.
