That is what svn ls -v shows you: the revision number and author of the
last commit. Usually only the tag itself will show with the tag creation
revision (against the entry ./), other files show you when they were last
modified.

You may actually want "svn ls -v -R <tag URL>" to get revision numbers for
all files and folders recursively.
