Hello !

I'm new to Darcs: I'm in the process of converting several svn projects to
Darcs (actually, they were PRCS projects first converted to svn via prcs2svn).

At the time I was using PRCS, I had a scheme for naming PRCS branches like
this (major.minor -- minor was automatically incremented by PRCS at each
commit):

- branch-x-y.l  (for unstable version "x.y beta l")
- version-x-y.l (for stable   version "x.y patchlevel l")

After converting to Subversion, I end up with a trunk and many directories of
the form /tags/branch-x-y.l and /tags/version-x-y.l with is perfect.


Then, I used tailor to convert my svn project to Darcs. I used the trunk to do
that, so I get a whole history of patches (in the PRCS / svn order), but no
tags. I browsed tailor's trac site and found out that it was (currently)
impossible to automatically import tags because in svn, these are represented
as seprate directories.


Well, ok. Then, I guess I have to manually recreate the tags in my set of
Darcs patches. But I'm new to Darcs and this frightens me :-) So here's the
advice I would like to get:

At some point in my patches history[1], I have this patch:

Tue Dec 12 14:43:08 CET 2006  didier
  * [project @ 126]
  Committed PRCS version version-1-10.1

  Version 1.10 is out.


How, with Darcs, do I "get back" to that point, insert a "version 1.10" tag,
and return to the current state ? My problem is that currently, rollback,
unpulll and unrecord all sound like "shoot yourself in the foot" to me ;-)



Thank you very much !




Footnotes: 
[1]  I understand that the notion of history in Darcs has no real meaning.
Here, it's the order in which patches were applied when converting from svn.
