Creating a tag in a new chest in Subversion

Question

We have a situation where we need to take the tag of our project and make it a new trunk. We took the existing trunk and turned it into a separate branch. My question is that - as soon as we have made the trunk branch, can we just remove the trunk and then copy the corresponding tag into the trunk? Is there a safer way to do this?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

You can do this without any risk, because this operation is also registered by SVN, so if you need to cancel something, you can.

Answer 2

svn move ( ).

svn move /path/to/repo/tag/foo /path/to/repo/trunk
