Our "components" are not so independent to treat them as "projects" - having 30 trunks and tags is not suitable for us.

Moreover, I'm agree (and we are ready to change build scripts/environment) that "one big unit of code" is better that dozens of components, and we have some time to change our repository and our minds :)

After test conversion I got ~6000 commits to SVN (with ~1800 unique tags) - approx 30%. I'm not familiar with internal SVN structure, but I'm think that unnecessary delete operations inside one commit are not the best.

So, I'm looking for opportunity to "hack" tags-creating process a little.

As soon as  I'm sure that all out tags (in CVS) are at component level, and they are properly named (I checked this - few exceptions can be painlessly excluded), I'm ready to do some "handwork", I just need some directions ;)


If there are no "easy" way to achieve my goal - I'll accept the situation.
I already created more complex tags structure (tags/componentName/X_Y_Z) using --write-symbol-info and --symbol-hints options, and, to be honest, this is pretty enough.
