Michael Osipov commented on MRELEASE-549:
-----------------------------------------
Are you sure about this? When we do {{svn copy}} from URL (trunk) to URL (tags)
shouldn't it pin already? Did you try it out?
> Pin svn:externals when tagging

>
> svn:externals is a property set on directories in a subversion repository.
> there are two classes of svn:externals, ones which specify a revision and
> ones which do not.
> when creating a tag, the tag should only contain svn:externals which have
> been pinned to specific revisions, otherwise the tag is not a tag, i.e. it is
> subject to change.
> A generic solution (i.e. not SVN specific) would be to add preTagGoals and
> postTagGoals so that a custom goal could be invoked around creating the tag.
