h1. Situation
Sometimes it is desirable to run build against an existing SCM tag.

h1. Demonstration
Visit the [demo project|http://demo.pmease.com/overview/95], and hit the run button. Please wait patiently and then QuickBuild will present a list of available tags in Subversion for user to select from. Select an arbitrary tag, click OK to run the build, and the build will be generated against specified tag.

h1. Resolution
# Switch to [repository setting of the demo project|http://demo.pmease.com/settings/95/repositories]. The demo Subversion repository is defined with checkout url specified as _https://svn.pmease.com/demos/commons-collections/tags/$\{vars.getValue("tag")}_. The _tag_ variable will be defined later to use the selected tag name.
# Switch to [variable setting of the demo project|http://demo.pmease.com/settings/95/variables]. The variable _tag_ is set to prompt as a selection box with choices defined as execution result of a groovy script executing the "svn list" command.
# Switch to [step setting of the demo project|http://demo.pmease.com/settings/95/steps]. Necessary steps are defined here to checkout from the Subversion repository, run Ant build script, and then publish generated artifacts.
