Re: Error when creating tags from working copy

Well, you've hit another limit on the "tags as branches" method used in
Subversion. Since tags are simply a copy from a particular revision of the
repository, you can't make a tag via a simple copy unless all the files are
in the same revision.
The only way I've found around this is to make a tag via a standard
revision, checkout that tag, then copy the changes you want one-by-one over
the tag. I use a script to do this.
