If you haven't pushed the tag, it is perfectly safe to delete and
recreate it. If you did push, however, the new tag will have to be
propagated manually in each and every clone. You can find more details
in [1], look for "On Re-tagging" section.

Even without git, I find artifacts with the same version but
different contents highly confusing. This is particular true for release
artifacts that are cached in various local repositories, Maven caching
proxies, etc.

for svn, in the past, we've deleted and reused the tag

for git, we've seen deleting a tag is not really possible in a safe
way, so
there is only one solution
Hm....are there any hints on that, cause i deleted earlier in Git
tags...which i never seen causing any problem...

Kind regadrds

Hello,

now that I canceled the vote on maven-pmd-plugin 3.3 should I go for
3.3.1
or _delete_ and _reuse_ the tag. Or may the release responsible
decide this
on his own? I am always in favor of creating a new tag.

Regards
Mirko
