Is it time to merge svn and subversion tags again? Below are tag counts for both tags on the trilogy sites.

    Or just implement tag synonyms and make the two mean the same thing.

    @jjinguy: I think synonyms are a bad idea, but automatic re-naming at edit/creation time would be better.

  • Updated tag counts. Server Fault still has a significant number of svn and subversion tags.

I did the ones on SO by hand.

Since there were only 9 questions, next time you can take care of them yourself since you have enough rep. See here for guidelines on when to retag and when to ask for help. I don't mean to be snarky, but for a really trivial number of questions, the mods don't need to be called in and do extra work that we as a community can accomplish in seconds. We have the power, we should use it.

The merge on SF, on the other hand, should be done by the mod's automagic non-bumping merge process since there are quite a few that need retagging.

  • Doing that many retags manually is annoying because captcha kicks in all the time.
