The "tag" command:
Usage: fossil tag SUBCOMMAND ...
Run various subcommands to control tags and properties
fossil tag add ?--raw? ?--propagate? TAGNAME CHECK-IN ?VALUE?
Add a new tag or property to CHECK-IN. The tag will
be usable instead of a CHECK-IN in commands such as
update and merge. If the --propagate flag is present,
the tag value propages to all descendants of CHECK-IN
fossil tag cancel ?--raw? TAGNAME CHECK-IN
Remove the tag TAGNAME from CHECK-IN, and also remove
the propagation of the tag to any descendants.
fossil tag find ?--raw? ?--type TYPE? TAGNAME
List all objects that use TAGNAME. TYPE can be "ci" for
checkins or "e" for events.
fossil tag list ?--raw? ?CHECK-IN?
List all tags, or if CHECK-IN is supplied, list
all tags and their values for CHECK-IN.
The option --raw allows the manipulation of all types of tags
used for various internal purposes in fossil. It also shows
"cancel" tags for the "find" and "list" subcommands. You should
not use this option to make changes unless you are sure what
you are doing.
If you need to use a tagname that might be confused with
a hexadecimal baseline or artifact ID, you can explicitly
disambiguate it by prefixing it with "tag:". For instance:
fossil update decaf
will be taken as an artifact or baseline ID and fossil will
probably complain that no such revision was found. However
fossil update tag:decaf
will assume that "decaf" is a tag/branch name.
only allow --date-override and --user-override in
fossil tag add --date-override 'YYYY-MMM-DD HH:MM:SS' \
--user-override user
in order to import history from other scm systems
