RE: Re: Using Tag methodology

No.. I don't think that's what he wants. He doesn't want to "move" the
tag folder itself but have the same tag contain different revisions of a
file. Sort of like "float" label. The only way to do this is..

1. Delete the tag and do a new copy using the same tag name.
2. Commit changes directly to the tag folder. Basically goes against the
tag convention but is doable.

Couldn't he just do a "move" on the tag? I thought tags are like any
other directory in Subversion, which means they can be moved around.
