You can copy the tag to the right place and delete it (or do a move which does both). However, the copy will still appear in the wrong place at the revision where it was committed since the repository maintains the history. This is rarely a problem since subversion handles copies efficiently. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com
