So, I've just discussed with sri over IRC : -we agreed tagging is less needed now we have SVN than years ago, in the CVS days. -nevertheless, since other GNOME modules are following the tagging convention and since it can be often more convenient to rely on tags when doing diff than digging into svn log, sri agreed to start back tagging evolution tree when doing releases. -in short, we are in agreement ;) Thanks again to Evolution team ! -- Frederic Crozat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mandriva ___ Evolution-hackers mailing list Evolution-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

I'm saying that the TAG would map directly to a revision in svn which would be the revision of the commit of those files. You can achieve what you want with tag with just revision number itself. In case of CVS, you can't do this. If it is of difficulty to map to a revision, no problem in resuming that again. -Srini. > > Or am I missing something ? ___ Evolution-hackers mailing list Evolution-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

Nothing against it :) I don't really see what it causing problem here : just tags the release corresponding to the commit for configure.in / NEWS / Changelog. It isn't really a big problem if there is another commit for the tag operation in SVN.

Re: [Evolution-hackers] Missing svn tags for e-d-s / evolution 2.18 releases
Frederic, One reason why me and Harish didn't want to tag is that we are able to map the svn revision number to a particular release. I hope isn't so difficult to get that from the ChangeLog/configure.in/NEWS commit logs. At least that is how we do while preparing NEWS file for a dot release to know what went in since the last release. If you have better points, We are open for it. Nothing against it :) -Srini.
