I accidentally deleted a SVN tag. Is it possible to recreate this tag easily ?
A tag is just a copy of the SVN tree at a certain point. You should be able to recreate it in the same way that you created it. eg
svn cp trunk tags/my_tagIf you need it to be a tag of a particular revision, then you pass in the revision number with
-rAlternatively, you can probably restore the original tag by doing a “reverse merge” on the checkin where you deleted the tag – but that’s more complicated. Google for that if you’d like to try it instead.
