TortoiseHg and multiple tags

Is it possible to assign multiple tags to commits using TortoiseHg? Currently, I can set only one tag to a particular commit, Looks like TortoiseHg doesn't allow more than one tag. So, is it possible to have more than one tag for a particular commit? and if so, how?

Thanks.

Solution

  • TortoiseHG definitely supports this.
    I just tried it with v 2.0.4:

    two tags on one commit

    What exactly makes you think TortoiseHG doesn't support this?
    Do you get an error message when you try it?

    Which version of TortoiseHg are you using? Maybe you're using an older version and they added this feature later? Try upgrading to the current version.

    EDIT:

    Davita, now I understand your problem.
    You are right, when you right-click on the commit, you can only enter one tag in the tag window.
    The trick is that you need to open the tag window several times in a row:

    • right click the commit and select "Tag"
    • enter "first tag" into the window and save
    • right click the commit and select "Tag" again
    • enter "second tag" into the window and save
