Are Bazaar tags versioned/controlled within the repository?
I found this article[1] from 2005 (bzr 0.15) that says tags are versioned, but I cant seem to find any other supporting documentation about how to get revision history on tags. i.e. If I change the tag RELEASE_1 from revision 12 to revision 15, I want to see who did it, when, and why. Is this possible?
I've tried the command:
bzr log -r tag:tag_name
But this only give me the revision history of the revision associated with the tag.
Unfortunately tags are not versioned in bzr.
The article you referred to spec on how it would be implemented, but in reality it was implemented differently.
According to bzr help tag, Tags are stored in the branch, and are copied from one branch to another along when you branch, push, pull or merge.
There is a feature request for tags to be versioned.
