Comment 9 for bug 681792

Yes, it didn't make it into 2.5.0 because of concerns about API changes so late in the cycle. See https://code.launchpad.net/~jelmer/bzr/overwrite-tags/+merge/91277 for the discussion.

Sorry for not letting you know about this earlier; after the discussion on the merge proposal I got distracted by other things and then forgot about it.

There are still some things we can do, such as providing a plugin with a command that implements this behaviour. Would that help, or are there perhaps other things we can do?
