this is not as easy in SVN as in CVS as SVN use another philosophy by
"emulating" tagging via cheap copy of corr. elements into a
subdirectory whose name serve as tag name kind of.

Hmmm ... perhaps you can do something complex. You may use

   $ svn info <url>/tag/my_tagname_here/subdir/file

and examine the line

   Last Changed Rev: <some revnumber here>

to get the info you probably want. But the rev number above is the
revision of the whole repository where the file was last changed in
that tag/branch/dir.

As there are no file assigned revision numbers but only global
revsions for the whole repository, I think you cannot get more
granular information.

If this above isn't enough, I fear I have no other answer for you,
sorry!

Ciao,
