Like many Subversion actions, how to do it depends on exactly what you
*mean* by the operation.

The simplest way is to delete .../tags/current and then re-copy .../trunk to
it.

Hmmm, now that I think about it, that's equivalent to every other way I can
think of to do it. It does carry the history information correctly.
