| OK, now I understand, so instead of

| svn cp . svn+ssh://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/tags/lyx_1_5_0beta1

|
| svn cp svn+ssh://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk \

| Right?
No, not necessarily(?).
If you saw the resulting commit message you saw:
- rXXX copied unmodified from trunk
- rXXX+1 configure.ac copied unmodified from trunk.
If you had done an "update" after you did the change to configure.ac
and committed that, you would have gotten just the first line. A bit
less confusing. But yes, you would have got the same if you hade used
URL -> URL copy.
(Basically what you did was to copy a mixed revision working copy to
the repo as a tag.)
