"tags" & svnversion

[Holger Rauch <ho...@heitec.de>]

Hi!

I got a question concerning "tags" created by copying the trunk over to a
tags subdir:

Why does "svnversion ." (run from within the newly created working copy)
show me the current repository revision (that of the HEAD revision)
when I check out a tag? I actually expected it to show me the revision
the repository had when the tag was once created. Running "svn log" on the
working copy *does* show me the "old" logging messages and repository
revisions, just as I expected.

(I also read chapter 4 of the Subversion book for the 1.1.x releases of
Subversion, but unfortunately I couldn't find any info regarding this issue
there.)

Thanks in advance for any info/pointers!

Kind regards,

	Holger

Usually you don't care, because the file's content is the same. If you
really need the latest commited version, try "svnversion -c ."
