I suspect the log for the tag will be quite complicated to follow. Will it show that the two files above are copied from the original tag? It might be worth trying deleting and recopying the updated files from the original versions. That might show the correct provenance; I'll try that in my test tag. Failing that, I think recreation of the tag from the original branch revision is the best option, with the log making clear what was done. Maybe keep the mangled tag, but rename it first. == I tried a 3rd option - reverse merge on the two changes, see http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/ However that resulted in a very messy change log: r1221045 | sebb | 2011-12-20 00:26:43 +0000 (Tue, 20 Dec 2011) | 1 line Changed paths: M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/BUILDING.txt after merghe2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1221034 | sebb | 2011-12-20 00:11:53 +0000 (Tue, 20 Dec 2011) | 1 line Changed paths: M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/BUILDING.txt M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/main/assembly M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/main/config M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/jexl2/introspection/JexlMethod.java M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/jexl2/introspection/JexlPropertyGet.java M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/jexl2/introspection/JexlPropertySet.java M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/jexl2/parser/StringParser.java M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/src/test/scripts after merghe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1221030 | sebb | 2011-12-19 23:58:49 +0000 (Mon, 19 Dec 2011) | 1 line Changed paths: M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/BUILDING.txt revert edit ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1221029 | sebb | 2011-12-19 23:58:29 +0000 (Mon, 19 Dec 2011) | 1 line Changed paths: M /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore/BUILDING.txt edit ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r1221026 | sebb | 2011-12-19 23:56:38 +0000 (Mon, 19 Dec 2011) | 1 line Changed paths: A /commons/proper/jexl/tags/test-ignore (from /commons/proper/jexl/branches/2.0:1221025) Test; will be deleted ------------------------------------------------------------------------ There's no indication in the change log what the reverse merges were (I had to reverse merge twice, because I used the wrong old version first time). Also there are lots of property changes to unrelated files (this was apparently related to merge properties).
