However, you can do the same thing using a branch instead of a tag.
Create a branch called BUILD, and have your developers copy trunk over
to that branch when they want a build. You can even have Jenkins
create an actual tag for you during the build process with the build
number as part of the tag.
If you're using Subversion, you can use either a tag or a branch using
the "svn delete" and "svn cp" command. Again, you can have Jenkins
create a tag for your build based upon the build number.
In Git, CVS, and Subversion, there are Jenkins plugins that allow you
to tag a build after it occurred. Just select the tag task from the
left-hand side of the screen, specify the tag, and let Jenkins handle
the rest.
