You can always put them into the tag commit. > Which useful info besides the name, and always present things like a > revision, timestamps, who made the commit etc. is this? Like 'which commit it is', in a useful way. Right now it is pretty impossible to even find the tags that were made on commits of a given branch's history. Like a 'svn log' that marks each such commit with the names of the tags made there. > And how does > one benefit of those additional info compared to the lack of > structuring of branches and tags those SCMs provide compared to > Subversion? All that structure is implicit. Unless someone tells you, you have no ways to deduce which paths of a subversion repository are meaningful to check out and which aren't. Andreas -- "Totally trivial.
