No, there won't be any tags, branches here, every thing is just going
linearly, giggling.
I just stumbled upon the "svn update to disaster" myself. Maybe its time
to start getting a bit serious about project management?
To the svn maintainer: The best practice is for the repository root to
look something like this:
/trunk (mirror of CVS, as usual)
/tags (contains 7.0/ and 7.1a/ folders -- obviously these folders are
static)
/branches (possibly used for contribs such as patches that didn't make
it into trunk (Bram's version) yet)
To anyone else afflicted: To downgrade back to 7.0-stable, just do an
"svn update -r NNN" where NNN is the revision you want to downgrade to.
Check the logs for the exact revision, I don't know off hand.
Cheers,
