Committed to SVN. Run tags can be set with the trec.runtag property.

Was this not an existing feature? i.e. automatically recording the configuration file used, and its associated runtag?
I guess that you still have to choose manually the runtag? How would you do it automatically?

The automatic runtag assignment is still available, and is actually the default mechanism. The only new thing is the possibility to manually assign an arbitrary tag. It can be useful, for example, when summarising the results of lots of experiments directly into a latex table, in which case you could give your runs the caption that will appear in the tables, instead of having to create an additional mapping between the system generated tag and the one you want to display.

Ok. Good. Can someone test so as to commit to system.
