Hi, I'm pretty sure this has been discussed upstream more than once. I personally think it's just fine to handle 'tags' in svn, which actually are branches, as branches by default, and so might tag this report WONTFIX. If you strongly want your change happen, please try to convince upstream. Thanks, Gerrit. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
