Is there a possibility to create tags more easily? [message #11570]

Hi,

I would like to tag only one element of my subversioned project. When the
dialog appears I have to enter not only a tag but the complete path and
name of the destination element. This is annoying.

I think it would be more easily to create tags if the client accepts a
simple tag (like V1.1.1) and creates the same structure as the source
below the tag directory.

How can I create a change request for that?

Thomas

P. S.: I am using Subversive 1.1.9 on Platform 3.3.2.

Hi Thomas,

First of all, the latest Subversive version is 0.7.0 distributed from the
Eclipse.org site. It provide abilities to migrate from the Subversive
stream 1.1.x. You can learn more details about migration process at:
http://www.eclipse.org/subversive/downloads.php

So, now about the problem... It sounds very strange because Subversive
already supports Subversion recommended layouts and you should only enter
a tag or branch name (if this feature is not disallowed in the plug-in
preferences).
Did you read the guide pointed below (Subversive help also contains the
same information)?

Dear Alexander,
thank you for your advice to migrate to version 0.7.0!

To explain exactly what I am intended to do, here an example repository
structure:

/Project
/trunk
/Folder1
/File1.1
/File1.2
/Folder2
/File2.1
/tags
/branches

Now I want to right-click on "File1.1" and select "Team" -> "Tag". Within
the dialog I would like to enter the tag "V1.0" and hit "OK".

Thereafter I expect the following structure:

/Project
/trunk
/Folder1
/File1.1
/File1.2
/Folder2
/File2.1
/tags
/V1.0
/Folder1
/File1.1
/branches

But instead of this I get:

/Project
/trunk
/Folder1
/File1.1
/File1.2
/Folder2
/File2.1
/tags
/V1.0
/branches

The element "V1.0" contains the content of "File1.1". To get the expected
structure I would have had to enter "V1.0/Folder1/File1.1" which is long
winded and error-prone.
