tagging externals

Stefan,

I just checked out the latest nightly, 18591, and was delighted to see
the modifications to support tagging externals. (I have not been
following the discussions on the devel list.)

I tried it out with a sample test case and would like to pass on the
following comments:

(1) It would be VERY helpful if there was a "Check all" button for
selecting the externals to be tagged. Having to manually select a
large number of library routines is inconvenient.

(2) After creating the tag in the repository, I then decided to
checkout a local working copy. It appeared to work as expected,
creating actual copies of all of the externals in the WC. However, it
then continued processing the same files as externals, giving repeated
'External failed - cannot overwrite existing version...' errors. In
the test tags repository, I see that both copies and externals of each
file are present. Did I do something wrong to cause this?

Thanks again for your excellent work.

Bob
