You don't need to find it, it will look right at you: "cvs log" lists all the branches that are known to the repository.

All GNU projects put their pretest versions on alpha.gnu.org. ftp.gnu.org, by contrast, is for released versions, so we should not put binaries there until Emacs 22.1 is released.
