I don't want to move the tag... I want to invalidate old tags by renaming them to something else (like foo-1-2-3 -> old_foo-1-2-3). Note that just using cvs to rename a tag (by tagging with the new name and then removing the former name) has issues when you try to do that with branch tags. Anyway, I'm pretty sure the FreeBSD cvs-meisters run something to invalidate tags after doing a repo copy. That's the information I was looking for. _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
