If you need a specific set of property changes in your tag, you can create a working copy which contains the necessary changes and then copy this working copy to a tag. svn co trunk-url working-copy cd working-copy svn propedit/propset svn:externals ... svn cp . ^/tags/1.0.0 We cannot automate details of everybody's build processes in SVN.
