How would I check-out 2.9.10 a year from now? What is the reason for not setting the tag?
Because whether I can do a release is determined entirely on the GUB side of things. By tagging in darcs I can be sure that every release I'm shipping as a binary is the same as the one that I'm shipping as source.
The tags I've added manually in the past weren't exact: there were often little differences because building the binary turned up new problems.
I can't tag CVS from GUB as it uses an anonymous checkout of CVS.If it's a problem we should add a timestamp file or similar to each binary build, so we can trace back exactly when a release was done.
