Thanks. I did read the manual & help and I did see that option, however, I
wasn't sure whether I'd introduce new files into the repository. I do
create many extra temp, build, and distribution folders under or parallel to
my build, with that option, would they get checked in too? Then that's not
what I want!

'svn help' is your friend.

Type 'svn help copy' at the command line to see that you can easily create a
tag from your working copy. Just use the working copy path as the SRC
argument. And you can create a tag from any numbered revision, not just
HEAD.
