Not if you see the full URL, but if you run

svn co http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build-plugin/tags/1.4

the default dir is 1.4.

But this is not the main issue.

I'm saying: please follow the existing convention for commons-build.

The *only* tag that does not follow the convention is 1.4; it's not as
if there's a mix of styles here.

Using a different convention in this case makes it harder to find the
latest release.

Every project seems to have a different convention, and some are not
consistent within themselves. I do not like the redundancies in the names.

The tag "name" is the URL, for example:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build-plugin/tags/1.4

Not just the last little bit at the end. There is no risk of confusion.

When in your example you list

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build-plugin/tags/

you are listing the commons-build-plugin tags in the first place! I do not
see the need for redundancy. It's like naming files in a directory with the
containing directory in the file name. Might have been a practice inherited
from CVS for all I know.

The other tags follow a different naming convention:

$ svn ls http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/commons-build-plugin/tags/
1.4/
1.4-RC1/
1.4-RC2/
commons-build-plugin-1.0/
commons-build-plugin-1.1/
commons-build-plugin-1.2/
commons-build-plugin-1.2-RC1/
commons-build-plugin-1.3/

Yes, they are verbose, but very useful to have the name prefix when
several tags are checked out using the default name.
