I have exactly the same problem as the fellow from this post -
http://jenkins.361315.n4.nabble.com/Tag-this-build-not-working-subversion-td384218.html,
except that I use the most recent build of jenkins - 1.413

Unfortunately, the post does not provide any workarounds except
downgrading to 1.310 (from 1.315)

I would gladly provide the logs, if I knew the logger names.

Please, help.

Thanks.
