Tagging and Merging and Rollback

I'm a new SVN user and come from the usual CVS world.

I'm pretty clear on the tagging-is-a-copy thing, but not so clear on how
to reference the tag in my merging and rollback commands.

For instance, I check in changes to the trunk. After checking in, I
create a tag of the trunk called foo-1.1-1.

I check in some broken files into the trunk. I no longer want anything
I checked into the trunk, and would prefer to replace the contents of
trunk with tag foo-1.1-1.

For all my googling, I have yet to find a succinct way to perform this
action. Instead, I must find the revision number of the foo-1.1-1 tag,
then the revision number of the trunk, and do a reverse merge on the
trunk with -r $TRUNKREV:$FOOREV.

Is there an easier way to perform what I want, perhaps without doing a
merge?
